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.

It's clear you care about bees and insects. However, we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

The Government already supports further restrictions on pesticides called neonicotinoids. You can find out more here:

The EU recently voted for a permanent ban on pesticides that are harmful to bees. You can find out more here:

We're therefore not sure exactly what further action you'd like to see.

You could start a new petition calling for a ban on the use of all pesticides, if that's what you want to happen.
