	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/01/2016 answer text <p>The Government does not issue guidance to the private parking industry on the levels of penalties for motorists. The private parking sector currently operates on a model of self-regulation, and parking companies predominantly obtain access to DVLA data by being a member of one of the two Accredited Trade Associations. These Trade Associations set out in their codes of practice that the maximum level should be no more than £100. Both Trade Associations suggest their members offer a reduced rate of at least 40% if payment is made within 14 days of the issue of the charge notice.</p> answering member constituency Nuneaton answering member printed Mr Marcus Jones question first answered 14/01/2016 17:16:43 answering member 4024 label Biography information for Mr Marcus Jones
