Rejected petition Exemption for clean air charges
I want you to stop the change for clean air zones for families who have a child with a serious illness that requires them to be in hospital
More details
Been in hospital costs so much money and adding this extra charge to travel to the hospital is added stress that families shouldn’t have to deal with. Having a child with cancer or a serious illness means you could be at the hospital 3-4 times a week for months, I would like you to exempt theses families from paying clean air charges

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Decisions about clean air zones and who can be exempt from the charges are a matter for the relevant local authority, not the UK Government or Parliament.
