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're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

Under the rules agreed by the House of Commons all UK residents and British Citizens and sign a petition. This includes people who don't have National Insurance numbers (eg. people who are under 16). We aren't sure whether you want to disqualify those people from signing petitions or not.

If you'd like the rules on petitions to change, so that only people with National Insurance numbers are eligible to sign petitions and need to provide their NI number to sign, you could start a new petition asking for that.

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