This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

Westminster Abbey is a Church of England church directly responsible to the sovereign, so decisions relating to the Abbey are a matter for the Church of England and Her Majesty the Queen, not the Government or House of Commons.

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