The company was liquidated in 2010 following that they had illegally manufacturing and selling breast implants made from cheaper industrial-grade silicone since 2001, hundreds of thousands of implants sold by PIP from 2001 to 2010 were found to have a 500% higher risk of rupturing or leaking. also being implicated in at several deaths due to systemic toxicity and several cases of induced breast cancer.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure what kind of support you would like the Government to offer to women who have had PIP implants.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you might want to ask the Government to provide financial assistance, or free examinations and implant removals on the NHS, or another kind of support.
