Rejected petition Provide female sanitary products to all women in Wales free of charge

The Welsh government should extend its provision of free female sanitary products to all women in Wales. Financial barriers to such products should not exist. Wales should follow the lead of Scotland and move to eradicate period poverty in our communities.

Why was this petition rejected?

There’s already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue, or if the Petitions Committee has considered one in the last year.

Another petition about providing free period products for all women in Wales is already collecting signatures:
