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. Bank notes are the responsibility of the Bank of England, which is independent of the Government and Parliament.
