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 are not sure what you mean by "sponsored by a commercial interest". Our rules already require petitions to be submitted by named individuals, not organisations.

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