Change the law regarding funding of government departments

Petition Details

In many government departments if you don't spend your allocated budget this financial year, you don't get the money the following year. This commonly leads to overspending & wastage of public money. Those trying to save money can be fired thus many are too afraid to do so. This must be changed.

Additional Information

E.g there are stories of people waiting ages in hospital to be seen. As a junior doctor on 12 hour shift I could see 12-15 patients. Each sheet of paper & form must have the patients full name, date of birth & hospital number. To fully label 6 sheets of paper & 7-10 forms takes 5-7 minutes. A £30 labels printer printing off 30 labels on admission can cut that time to 1 minute saving 72-90 minutes per shift so you can see 2-3 more patients! They may not do that partly for this reason.

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're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Departmental budget allocations are decided by the Treasury, rather than set out in law.

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