Motor Vehicles: Recovery Orders

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when she will publish the updated statutory fees guidance for recovery operators.

Answer

The Home Office does not issue statutory fees guidance. The Home Office’s role is limited to setting the statutory fees which the Police and National Highways can levy when they have exercised their vehicle recovery powers.

In May 2021, the Home Office launched a consultation seeking views on new levels of fees applied to the removal, storage and disposal of vehicles in England and Wales.

We will shortly announce the next steps following our consultation.
