Parking Offences: Havering

Asked by Andrew RosindellReform UKDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 1 December 2025UIN 93684

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what information her Department holds on the number of parking fines that have been administered by the London Borough of Havering in every year since 2010.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

The Department for Transport does not hold this data. Local authorities publish some financial information relating to parking fines on their websites.

All local authorities have a statutory responsibility to provide appropriate traffic management schemes for their roads; therefore they are free to make their own decisions about the streets under their care, provided they take account of the relevant legislation. They are accountable to local people for their decisions and their performance.
