Petition Parliament should have to debate the actual subject of an e-petition
More details
The actual subject of the first e-petition to prompt a Parliamentary debate was ignored by MPs when the debate took place.
The petition, signed by 240,000 people, called for those convicted of involvement in the riots to lose their benefits, yet this subject was not raised at the debate.
E-petitions should have to have their proposed action debated if Commons debates on the subject take place.
