Rejected petition I want people in the north east and England to have the same pay as other places

I want them to acknowledge that people in the care sector deserve to be paid higher than what they get now 11.94 is disgusting

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 pay for staff in the care sector are a matter for their employers, not the UK Government or Parliament.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to increase the national minimum wage, if that's something you want to happen.

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