Why was this petition rejected?

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

We can't accept your petition because the issue you raise is not the responsibility of the Government or Parliament. You could start a petition calling for the sale of ivory in the UK to be banned.

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