This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition To order Tom Watson to make public all letters & emails to police & NGOs
All abuse cases where he has encouraged an investigation and particular the Leon Brittan investigation.
If HRH Prince of Wales must publish his letters of 'encouragement' to those in positions of power and influence then so , surely, should Tom Watson.
More details
In light of the fact that we have no idea what witch hunts are being create by these letters at an unknown financial cost. What sort of pressure and level of persuasion is being used and for what reason?
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the correspondence of individual MPs. They therefore could not take the action you've requested.
It was the Cabinet Office, not the Prince of Wales, which was required under the Freedom of Information Act to disclose the correspondence it held. Government departments are public authorities under the Act. You can find out more about the Act here:

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