This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The security and locking systems of commercial vehicles is the responsibility of manufacturers.

You could raise your issue directly with manufacturers.

If you would like the Government to set minimum standards for locking systems, you could start a new petition asking for that.

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