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 understand that you're concerned about social housing, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

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

If you rent your home from the council or a housing association or claim housing benefit, there are rules about how many bedrooms you are entitled to. You can find out how many bedrooms you're entitled to here:

You may also be able to apply for help to make changes to your home:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking for the housing allowance rules to be changed so that children with more than a 10-year age gap are not expected to share a room, if that's what you'd like to happen.
