Member may find it reassuring to know that all petitions submitted are moderated by the staff of the Petitions Committee before being published and opened for signing by the public. The Committee staff ensure that all petitions adhere to the agreed standards which are clearly displayed on petition.parliament.uk. The final decision on the admissibility of an e-petition rests with the Petitions Committee itself.</p> answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 05/12/2016 14:23:14 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
