Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition calling on Parliament to change the law, to make it a legal requirement that every property in the UK should have an annual gas safety check.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
