What the petition asks
That people that suffer from Graves’ disease can claim P.I.P
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Laws and policies don't list specific conditions and define them as disabilities. In most cases, it’s the impact that a health condition has on the person’s life that qualifies them for support or protection under the law.
