I believe everybody has a right to justice under the rules of natural justice and currently there is no where i know of, to go in regards to mistakes made resulting in mistakes made with said Certificates. There is no Jurisdiction to investigate.

This petition was rejected

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 it appears to be about adoption cases in the Republic of Ireland. These would not be the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

You could start a new petition if you would like to change the rules around provision of adoption certificates in England.

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