The County Council is now providing an e-petitioning service. This allows petitions and supporting information to be made available to a potentially much wider audience than a traditional paper based petition. Anyone who lives, works or studies in Leicestershire or is the recipient of a County Council Service can submit or sign an e-Petition.
