This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

It's clear that you want young people to receive the same minimum wage as other workers. However, we're not sure what you want to happen for people of retirement age. In particular, we're not exactly sure what you mean by "those of retirement age would receive a £1 enhancement per hour."

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
