Rejected petition Recognise the chronic illness Graves’ disease as a disability

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.

Laws and policies don't list specific conditions and define them as disabilities. In most cases, it’s the impact that a health condition has on the person’s life that qualifies them for support or protection under the law.

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