This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We are no clear for what purposes you want this classification. Is it for purposes of recognition under the Equality Act, or for access to benefits or other allowances - or is it in regard to access to NHS treatments? If you submit another petition making this clear we can take another look.
