Rejected petition Stop A and E being mis-used.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

It's not clear what action you would like the Government to take on this issue. For example, it's not clear whether you would like a penalty (such as a fine) to be imposed on people who misuse A&E, or whether you would like powers to be given to healthcare staff to refuse treatment in some circumstances.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what action you would like to be taken. It would also be helpful if you could explain how you think "misuse" of A and E should be defined.

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