Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
This is a matter for the BBC's Executive Board and the BBC Trust because the BBC is independent of Government.
It is the responsibility of the BBC Trust to ensure that the BBC delivers financial efficiency and hold the Executive to account for its performance in delivering value for money.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
