Rejected petition Bring back the Department for Energy and Climate Change
Rejected on
I feel that having a department for energy and climate change gives more importance to the problem of climate change than a department for "business, energy and industrial strategy" and therefore I would like to see the department for energy and climate change re-introduced.
