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. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. Additionally, we can't accept petitions that call for action at a local level. You could ask your MP to take action on your concerns about this issue, including by asking them to present a public (paper) petition about this.
