answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/06/2021 answer text <p>At the end of March 2020, the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government reached an agreement with the Local Government Association that local councils in England would voluntarily offer free car parking to all NHS workers, social care staff and NHS volunteer responders during the emergency response period.</p><p>With the national lockdown drawing to a close, challenges in managing pass fraud and an increasing number of councils moving toward local concessions for health workers and other groups, it was agreed that the national pass guidance should be withdrawn.</p><p>This is reflected in new joint parking enforcement advice provided in April to local authorities by the Local Government Association, British Parking Association and London Councils. In May, further updates were shared with NHS Trusts, the Royal Voluntary Service and local authorities, and the guidance page was updated on gov.uk.</p><p>Councils are responsible for setting their own local policy and are already acting on this advice, with some deciding to offer their own concessions. Those interested in local parking concessions can check their local councils' website for further details of any local schemes.</p><p>NHS staff continue to be eligible for free parking in hospital car parks and funding for this has been provided to NHS Trusts by government.</p> answering member constituency Thornbury and Yate answering member printed Luke Hall question first answered 21/06/2021 15:46:26 answering member 4450 label Biography information for Luke Hall
