Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We understand that you are concerned about support for people with severe mental illnesses. You could start a new petition setting out more clearly what you would like. For example, how would you like carers to be involved if capacity is lost? We also do not accept petitions calling for laws named after individuals.

Background
We want the Government to introduce Chloe’s Law, to strengthen safeguards for people living with severe mental illness. This should include: a legal duty to act on public suicide risk posts, mandatory recall under Community Treatment Orders when patients deteriorate, safe housing for vulnerable patients, and giving carers a legal right to be involved when capacity is lost. These changes could prevent avoidable deaths.
