Implement restrictions on former PMs’ Public Duties Cost Allowance (PDCA)

Petition Details

Parliament should consider restricting qualifying criteria to PDCA (currently up to £115k pa) to disqualify any former PM who has not served a minimum term in post.

Additional Information

It would be grossly inappropriate for a former PM who has caused such detriment to the National economy to be eligible to such an award. Particularly in the face of renewed austerity.

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 want to see restrictions to eligibility to access the Public Duty Costs Allowance, but it's not clear what length term you want a Prime Minister to have served before becoming eligible to access this allowance.

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