This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

It appears that you are concerned about the influence of special advisers, but it's not clear what action you want the Government or House of Commons to take.

Special advisers are temporary civil servants employed to give political advice and assistance to ministers, but decisions are taken by Ministers. The House of Commons, as the legislature for the UK, scrutinises all legislation that is introduced by the Government, and d
ecides where this becomes law or not.

We have published a number of petitions relating to special advisers, which you might like to sign:

Set up a new, open, way to investigate the conduct of Special Political Advisers: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/325575

Make appointments of special advisers subject to parliamentary approval: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/323054
