The question

Answered by Alex Norris
The Government recognises the need for high standards in the private parking industry and is committed to delivering a Code of Practice, in accordance with The Parking (Code of Practice) Act 2019.
We will ensure the Code provides the best possible protection for motorists while giving parking companies the tools to manage their facilities effectively.
We are currently reviewing all options and will announce our plans regarding the Government Code in due course.
