Petition Investigate NHS shortages of weight-loss injections

I would like the Government to investigate why the NHS is having trouble with sourcing a sufficient amount of weight loss injections for those who need them. Private companies appear to be able to source them to sell, so the NHS should be able to do so too.

More details

I think the Government should conduct an investigation to see why sufficient amounts of these cannot be obtained to be provided to those who need this treatment, on the NHS, free of charge. It is unfair that private companies appear to be able to buy them and make them available to people who can afford them, when the NHS is experiencing shortages.
