The Secretary of State recently wrote to all local authorities in England setting out his expectations that parking services for which councils are responsible remain accessible. For example, it would not seem appropriate for parking on a high street to be solely available for those who have access to a mobile phone. Nor would it appear sensible for local authorities to phase out paper-based parking options such as 'scratch cards' if the only available replacement is an entirely digital option.</p> answering member constituency Bishop Auckland answering member printed Dehenna Davison grouped question UIN 197317 question first answered 11/09/2023 13:29:42 answering member 4737 label Biography information for Dehenna Davison
