Why was this petition rejected?

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

We don't understand how you want family members to be paid. You could start a new petition about this, but you need to ensure that you are calling for clear, specific action from the Government or Parliament.

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