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 want to see new arrangements put in place in respect of how asylum seekers complete the questionnaire that the Government is planning to send to certain refugees, but it's not clear if you just want specific arrangements to be made for the completion of these forms, if you want anyone who cannot read and write in English to be ineligible for asylum in the UK.
If the UK Government wanted to refuse asylum to anyone who could not read and write in English they would likely need to review their international obligations in respect of asylum seekers.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
