Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Lord Stratford (Labour), on Friday, 1 February 2002, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 38 members in total.
GLA CONGESTION CHARGING AND THE RSPCA
That this House notes the good work undertaken in London by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and that in 2000, they responded to 887 seperate incidents, consisting of 561 animal collection, and 197 successful convictions for cruelty; further notes that the first stage consultation on plans for congestion charging in London did not recommend any exemption for RSPCA operational vehicles and that this, based on previous years' figures, could lead to a potential cost of more than ??5,000 per year in congestion charges to the charity; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to urge Transport for London, The Mayor and Greater London Assembly Members, when considering the final congestion charging scheme, to offer a 100 per cent. exemption to RSPCA operational vehicles.
