Crimes in Chatteris are increasing at an alarming rate

The most significant rapidly increasing crime in Chatteris is that of burglary. Chattieris seems to have become a target for criminals now there is no longer any police presence in the town

Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
We can't accept your petition because the issue you raise is not the responsibility of the Government or Parliament. The elected Police and Crime Commissioner for Cambridgeshire is responsible for policing in Chatteris.
