The petition read as follows:
TO THE SPEAKER AND MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY FOR THE AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY

Your petitioners therefore request the Assembly to:
1) Ban the battery cage system in the ACT.
2) Encourage and foster the establishment of free range egg production in the ACT.
