Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand you are concerned about the provision of gender neutral bathrooms, however it's not clear where you want such bathrooms to be provided. In any case, the provision of public toilets is a matter for local authorities, not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could start a petition calling on the Government to provide local authorities with funding to increase the provision of gender neutral public toilets in their area, if that is something you'd like to see happen.
