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.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about regulation of the care sector, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. The Care Quality Commission was established by legislation, and it would require primary legislation to change how the care sector is regulated.

You can read more about the legislation governing the Care Quality Commission here: https://www.cqc.org.uk/guidance-providers/regulations-enforcement/legislation

We could accept a petition calling for changes to regulation of the care sector, but it would need to be clear what changes you wanted to be made.

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