Freedom To Choose (Scotland) Petition Gains International Support

April 10, 2009 - PRLog -- The e-petition raised by Freedom To Choose (Scotland) calling on the Scottish Parliament to request the Scottish Government to review the consultation ‘Achieving Smoke-free Mental Health Services in Scotland’ has gained international support.

Signatures have been received from all parts of the UK, other EU countries including Austria, France, Germany, Malta, Spain, the Irish Republic and Denmark, and also from Switzerland, Canada and the USA.

The petition calls for a full review of the consultation, and will be collecting signatures until the closing date of Friday 17 April. It was put forward in response to factual inaccuracies in the consultation document that make the process fatally flawed.

Freedom To Choose (Scotland) are confident that the Scottish Parliament will agree that a consultation should be based on accurate information and solid, scientific data.
