The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps her Department is taking to ensure that private car park charges are reasonable.

Answered by Alex Norris

The Government is determined to drive up standards in the private parking sector. The Private (Code of Practice) Act 2019 places a duty on the Government to prepare a code of practice containing guidance about the operation and management of private parking facilities. We will announce our plans for the new Code in due course.
