This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Catering services for MPs, their staff, House of Commons staff and others in the House of Commons are provided by an in-house team who do not provide a subsidised service in the commercial sense.

You can find out more about the net costs of catering services in the House of Commons here:
