This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about changes to benefit entitlements if one member of a couple reaches state pension age, but we're not sure exactly what changes you'd like the Government to make to entitlements to benefits.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
