This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.

Decisions about the electorate for some elections in Wales and Scotland are devolved to the Scottish Parliament and Welsh Parliament.

As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.
