Allow students to have up to 6 people in their flats in Scotland.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

We would like Parliament to overrule the devolved Scottish Assembly and allow students (especially) to have up to 6 people in a home.
We need to be allowed to make small study groups in order to effectively carry out the work that is asked of us.

I am a student living in a 2 person flat. With the vast majority of our paid for university facilities not being in use, we are having to meet in our flats with fellow university students to get our work done.
Our academic resources have been completely diminished and we are having to make do with what limited resources are available online.
Being able to meet in small study groups and work is a vital part of our progression and education.
The mental health of students is at tipping point.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is a matter for the Scottish Government.
