This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about staffing for individual hospitals are a matter for the relevant NHS Trust, not the UK Government or Parliament.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to fund increased staffing for NHS hospitals, if that's something you'd like to happen.

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