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 age at which health checks are a matter for the NHS, not the Government or House of Commons, and these are not set out in law.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to fund NHS Health Checks for everyone from the age of 35, if that's something you would like to happen.
