Rejected petition The taxi driver becomes a key worker

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.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you want the Government to take action in relation to taxi drivers, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

The Government has produced a list of critical workers who can access schools or educational settings, but otherwise does not officially designate particular groups of workers as keyworkers. If you would like public transport workers, including taxi workers, to be added to this list we could accept a petition requesting this.

If you want the Government to take a different action you could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

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