Compulsory debate on successful e-petitions in the House of Commons
In light of the government's decision to deny MPs the chance to debate the government's NHS reforms on the floor of the House of Commons despite an e-petition with over 160,000 signatures calling for it, we, the undersigned, petition the government to make debate of all e-petitions that successfully reach over 100,000 signatures compulsory.
The e-petition system is designed to allow the public access to politics and it is unacceptable that the government do not answer to the people when called to order, particularly over such crucial legislation as the NHS reforms.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
