This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

Policing in Scotland is devolved, which means it is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

The Scottish Parliament has its own Public Petitions Committee. You can get in contact with them at petitions@scottish.parliament.uk.

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