This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The setting up of a Clean Air Zone in the Greater Manchester area is a matter for the Mayor of Greater Manchester and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, not the UK Government or Parliament. The Government is therefore not directly responsible for the action this petition calls for.
