<p>The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) discloses vehicle keeper details
to allow alleged breaches of the conditions applying to parking on private land to
be followed up. The DVLA monitors the use of its data by parking companies and uses
information gained from a number of sources, including appeals when considering audits
to vehicle keeper information.</p><p> </p><p>The success or otherwise of individual
appeals is not the only indicator to determine whether information should continue
to be released to a private parking company.</p><p> </p><p>Motorists in England and
Wales can appeal parking charges free of charge. The decisions are binding on the
parking operator. Parking companies and their accredited trade associations may use
the results of these appeals to adjust their business practices. The outcome of appeals
cannot therefore be relied upon as a sole indicator of the conduct of parking companies.</p><p>
