This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Planning issues are devolved in Scotland. That means that your petition is about something that the Scottish Government and the Scottish Parliament are responsible for. The UK Government and Parliament therefore can't look into this issue.

The Scottish Parliament has its own Public Petitions Committee. If you'd like to send your petition to the Scottish Parliament, you can find out more here:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
