This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

Disability benefits are paid to people who have a health condition or disability which mean you are unable to work or causes difficulties with daily living or getting around. These benefits are paid based on the difficulties causes by a health condition or disability, but there are not particular conditions which result in disability benefits being paid.

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