This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

The Government is not responsible for the way individual GPs assess their patients, however we do have a petition open at the moment which asks to review this process, which you might like to sign:

Commission an independent review into GP access
