What the petition asks
Due to a disengaged audience and disgruntlement over the fact this money can be directly used to benefit Glasgow/Scotland over the year of 2016, we have organised a local petition to try and shut this project down and re allocate the funds to a more rewarding and interesting topic/purpose/event.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
Creative Scotland is the responsibility of the Scottish Government. That means that the UK Government and Parliament can't look into the issue you've raised.
