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 exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. In particular we are not sure if you would like the Coronavirus Bill to be reversed or reviewed. The legislation already contains the ability for Parliament to conduct 6 month reviews on the operation of the powers.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
