This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We are not clear about what specific action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take. It is clear that you are concerned about funding for health services in mid-Essex. If you would like the Government to provide more funding for the NHS in mid-Essex, you could start a petition about that.
