What the petition asks
Having recently read in the paper of an offender who is living on the same street as me. It has become worrying that after pleading guilty to the crime he continued to live amongst us for over a year before rest of the street knew about it! And I thought how many more examples are there??

Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We can't accept your petition in its current form as it does not call for a clear action from the UK Government and Parliament. You could start a petition calling on Parliament to change the law to introduce restrictions on where convicted pedophiles can live.
