This was intended to help organisations to continue to provide the appropriate parking concessions and exemptions from certain tolls to users of vehicles in the disabled tax class, following the abolition of the tax disc.</p><p> </p><p>The term &quot;disabled&quot; describes a vehicle’s tax class and does not refer to a living individual. Views have been expressed about the potential impact on the privacy of individuals who may be linked with vehicles licensed in the disabled tax class. The DVLA has removed all tax classes from the vehicle enquiry service while these matters are being considered in discussion with the Information Commissioner’s Office.</p> answering member constituency Devizes answering member printed Claire Perry question first answered 13/10/2014 11:43:32 answering member 3974 label Biography information for Claire Perry
