The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 12 May 2025 to Question 49771 on Parking: Fines, if she will publish the (a) correspondence and (b) research.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

The research into the effectiveness of current civil parking penalty charge levels was carried out by the Parking and Traffic Regulations Outside London organisation in concert with the British Parking Association, and with the support of the Local Government Association. Dissemination of this research, which was not commissioned by the Department for Transport, and associated correspondence with the Department, is a matter for those organisations.
