This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Privately managed prisons holding adult males have the option to roll out PAVA to their staff. Decisions about whether to do so are a matter for privately managed prisons, not the UK Government or Parliament.
