Hospitals: Parking
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will make it his policy to abolish parking charges for NHS staff.
Answered by Karin Smyth
There are no plans to abolish parking charges for National Health Service staff.
All trusts that charge for hospital car parking provide free parking to ‘in-need groups’, which include NHS staff working overnight, frequent outpatient attenders, disabled people and parents of children staying overnight in hospital.
