Rejected

What the petition asks
Following a recent cancellation incident caused by strike actions of Ryanair’s staff & showing lag of willingness to comply with existing laws and regulations (specifically EU Regulation 261/2004), I call upon the UK Gov., relevant bodies & secretaries to probe Ryanair's code of conduct / business.
The probe shall target to identify: (a) whether Ryanair is in full compliance with laws and regulations, specifically in applying EU Regulation 261/2004 (b) whether Ryanair, by not or not fully or not promptly complying with EU Regulation 261/2004, generates unlawful, illegal advantages over other airlines and therefore causes a dislocation of markets, (c) meaningful actions against Ryanair's business practices, take enforcements to stop those and consider appropriate fines where relevant.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
Airlines are regulated by the Civil Aviation Authority, which is independent.
