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.
We understand you are concerned about the allowance given to carers whose duties involve at least 35 hours a week, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a petition to increase the amount paid as carer's allowance to match the minimum wage, if that is what you'd like to see happen.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
