Parking

Question
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they will advise local authorities about whether Sunday parking arrangements apply on public holidays,including 1 January and 25 and 26 December when they fall on a Saturday; and whether parking restrictions should be enforced accordingly unless they have displayed clear notices to the contrary.
Answer

No. Local authorities’ traffic regulation orders will indicate when parking restrictions are enforceable. Where they are enforceable, it is for individual authorities to determine how and when to enforce them, and to inform drivers effectively.
