Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

If you are concerned about issues in your area you could raise this issue with a local councillor, who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them: https://www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors
