This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure whether you want theatres to be given extra funding, or if you'd like the Government to refund businesses for savings they pass on to the customers, as with the Eat Out to Help Out Scheme.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do, or you might like to sign this petition:

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