Rejected petition: Petition to Introduce the Integrated Cognitive Support Framework Act 2026
Rejected on
We request that the UK Government:
• Review the proposed framework
• Launch a formal consultation
• Introduce the Act to Parliament
We believe this framework will:
• Improve fairness and consistency in support provision
• Strengthen implementation of the Mental Capacity Act 2005
• Support delivery under the Care Act 2014 and Children and Families Act 2014
• Introduce a structured, evidence-based system for identifying support needs
• Require mandatory annual reviews to ensure accuracy and fairness
• Reduce inequality in access to support
• Improve safeguarding
• Provide clarity for families, carers, and professionals
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We are not sure on what specific actions you want to take, or what particular services any changes should apply to. There is not enough detail about this proposed framework to make it a clear ask of the Government or Parliament.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do, such as setting out specific steps or changes to law you would like to see implemented in more detail.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
