We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do to ensure fairness in this area. Alternatively, you may wish to sign an existing petition that deals with this issue, for example:
Pay Carers an allowance equivalent to a fulltime job at the National Living wage
Ensure carers are paid every hour they are in work place including sleep in duty
