Parking
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty’s Government what powers they have in relation to a local authority shown to have provided false information about parking signage in order to obtain permission for a designation order for civil parking enforcement.
- Answer
-
The Secretary of State has the power to revoke a statutory instrument that designates the whole or part of a local authority's area as a civil enforcement area for parking contraventions. An application by a local authority to revoke the instrument would be considered on its merits. There are no other specific powers in current legislation for the Government to investigate or take action against local authorities on such grounds.
