The public petitions process is a key part of the Parliament's commitment to participation, openness and accessibility. It allows individuals, community groups and organisations to participate in the policy scrutiny process by raising issues of concern with their Parliament. Once petitions are submitted, they are considered by the Public Petitions Committee. Any person or group may submit a petition to the Parliament.
The Committee's remit is to decide what action should be taken on admissible public petitions. It is also responsible for deciding, in cases of dispute, whether a petition is admissible.
