This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament

Rejected petition Stop nurserys charging parents for days they are closed, eg Bank Holidays.

As a human right, we shouldn't have to pay for a service we are not getting. With the cost of living increasing and the average cost a day being £50+ to put your child into a nursery. Why are we paying for a service that can't physically be used when the nursery is closed. Stop bank holiday charges!

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 only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

The pricing, and opening times, of privately provided childcare are matters for individual providers and parents, not the UK Government or Parliament.

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