Kirsten Oswald – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Communities and Local Government

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Kirsten Oswald on 2016-04-25.

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, what discussions he has had with representatives of the private parking industry on the implications of the Supreme Court case, Beavis vs ParkingEye.

Mr Marcus Jones

The Government is aware of the public concern at the way some private parking companies operate.

Whilst we have not held any specific discussions with the DVLA or representatives of the private parking companies, we are currently reviewing responses to the discussion paper, “Parking Reform: Tackling Unfair Practices”.

We will issue a response in due course.
