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.

We understand you want more involvement for UK companies and materials in energy projects, however it's not clear what you want the Government to do to achieve this. Further, the materials and suppliers any individual business chooses to use would be a matter for them, not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could start a petition calling on the Government to create a green jobs fund for which only UK residents are eligible, if that is something you'd like to happen.

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