This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

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're not sure what you'd like a review to cover, as the petition already states the desired outcome of more planners.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do, such as funding more planning roles in local authorities.
