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, and we're not sure exactly what changes you'd like to be made to planning legislation.

We can accept petitions calling for changes to legislation governing new developments, but it would need to be clear what types of development you want to be prevented, or for planning permission to be required for.
