There are currently 71 petitions open for signatures on the House e-petitions website. The petitions cover a diverse range of topics including arts and education, national security, visa processing, protests in Iran and the sale of military assets. More certifications will follow at the committee's next meeting.

The committee's inquiry into the standing orders relating to petitions continues to progress, with 16 submissions received and available on the committee's website. The committee is continuing to gather evidence and looks forward to continuing to engage with stakeholders throughout the process. I look forward to updating the House further on the work of the Petitions Committee.
