Rejected petition Make all laws passed at the senedd only law after a national referendum.

Because of misrepresentation on laws set by a minority of people in one room give the whole nation a say!

Why was this petition rejected?

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

The Senedd’s competence to make laws derives from the Government of Wales Act 2006 (“GoWA”). To achieve the petition outcome would require amending GoWA, which is an Act of the UK Parliament and is protected from amendment by the Senedd under paragraph 7 of Schedule 7B to GoWA.
