Keep animal fat (Tallow) in new £5 notes. Changing would waste money.
We want to keep the tallow that is in the £5 notes as to change this would cost unnecessary spending. In the short term it would cost to get the brand new affected notes out of circulation and long term we would have to use a more expensive material. It is a natural substance and is biodegradable

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Bank notes are the responsibility of the Bank of England, which is independent of the Government and Parliament.
You could start a new petition asking the Government to urge the Bank of England not to change the content of £5 notes.
