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 the UK Government aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Licensing of taxis and private hire vehicles in London is a matter for the London Assembly and the London Mayor.
The London Assembly has its own petitions process. You can find out more about how to petition the London Assembly here: https://www.london.gov.uk/about-us/london-assembly/petitions
We could accept a petition calling for changes to the framework for licensing taxis and private hire vehicles in England, but it would need to be clear what changes you want the Government to make to current licensing rules.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
