Completed petition Create a recall mechanism for poorly performing Members of the Senedd

We call on the Senedd to urge the Welsh Government to introduce a mechanism where constituents are able to recall their MS and call a subsequent by-election, similar to the mechanism introduced by The Recall of MPs Act 2015.

If a Member of the Senedd fails in his/her duty a mechanism should be in place to replace him/her.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of the Senedd. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.
