To revise treatment of Kent as a single region in conferring Tier status
Rejected

What the petition asks
Divide Kent into two areas to more properly reflect the incidence of CV.
Today's announcement which establishes Tier three status for the whole if Kent is massively disproportionate to the risk in a large area of the county. As can be seen from the current map, the area of South West Kent from Sevenoaks to Folkestone is below the average for the UK - sometimes well below. It is economically suicidal and totally unnecessary to lump the whole county together.
