This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

This is the responsibility of crisp manufacturers.

If you would like Parliament to change the law, to make it illegal to sell crisps in non-recyclable packets, you could start a new petition calling for that. Alternatively, you could ask the Government or Parliament to create incentives to encourage manufacturers to use recyclable package, such as tax reliefs.
