I welcome the consultation on a new Private Parking Code of Practice and encourage as many people to respond outlining their concerns at
My own view is that the proposed changes do little to protect people from low-income backgrounds. The cap should be much lower than £100 and offering a 40% discount pressures motorists into paying, rather than exploring their options to appeal. Finally, the burden of debt recovery fees should not be placed on motorists, whatever the cost, and should be scrapped altogether.
We must seek to align closely with local authority run car parks, which are often cheaper, and I’ll be addressing the proposed changes with my colleagues.
I urge my constituents to engage with the consultation.
