(Words describing who the petition is from, usually "Certain citizens of Australia")

Petition title can't have more than 10 words

Words describing what your petition is about. For example, "Apply tax to sugary drinks"

B. Terms of your petition

This is where you tell us clearly what your issue is, that is the reason why you are petitioning the House and what you are requesting the House to do.

For example:

Requesting that the House extend to the period for Australians to receive aged care and disability pensions while overseas

Suggesting that the House act to ban the sale of energy drinks to children under 18 years

Asking the House to do all it can to ban live exports of animals

The terms of your petition must relate to an area in which the House has power to act, usually this means something that the Federal Government is responsible for. Check the petition requirements for more information on this.

Please note that there is a combined 250 words limit for both your Reasons and Request for Action.



Please modify your petition terms to keep words count within 250.
