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 Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about what channels to licence for broadcast on freeview TV are a matter for Ofcom, not the Government or Parliament. You can find out more about Ofcom's role, and look up TV broadcast licences, here: www.ofcom.org.uk/tv-radio-and-on-demand
