Inquiry into the quality of private student housing

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Students are being exploited in terms of the quality of housing and estate agents need to be held to greater account!
Students are not money bags!

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 understand that you are concerned about privately provided student accommodation, but it's not clear what you want a public inquiry to investigate or achieve.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly why you want a public inquiry and what this should investigate.
