Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
This is a matter for the Boundary Commission for England which is independent of Government. The BCE is currently conducting a consultation into its latest Boundary review and would welcome comments from members of the public. Please visit the BCE website for further information.
Following the conclusion of the consultation process and the publication of the final plans for the new boundaries, we will be able to consider publishing e-petitions on the issue. At that point, you may want to consier resubmitting your e-petition.
