Rejected petition Allow the people of Wales to hold a Devolution Referendum

Now is the time we need to stand together and rid ourselves of this ongoing dictatorship that rules over so many aspects of our lives. From the disastrous 20mp law, to the purchase of a £4.2 million farm, to name just 2, this government is self serving and will NOT listen to our voices. So we must now show them in writing. We must rid ouselves of these incompetants before they ruin our once great nation forever. Please sign and let's get Wales off it's knees.

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the Senedd or Welsh Government is not responsible for.

Petitions to the Senedd must call for a specific action that falls within the powers of the Senedd or Welsh Government.
Schedules 7A and 7B of the Government of Wales Act 2006 set out the issues which are ‘restricted’ or ‘reserved’ to the UK Parliament - i.e. areas where only the UK Parliament or Government, not the Senedd or Welsh Government, can act.
Holding a referendum regarding devolution is reserved to the UK parliament.

As a result, it is not possible for the Senedd to take the action called for by your petition.

Further information about the powers and responsibilities of the Senedd can be found here: https://senedd.wales/how-we-work/our-role/powers/

You may wish to consider petitioning the UK Parliament about this issue instead: https://petition.parliament.uk/
