The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) and the Equality Act don't name specific medical conditions. In most cases, it’s the impact on the person’s life that qualifies them for support or protection under the law.
