Asked by Mr Richard HoldenConservativeMinistry of Housing, Communities and Local GovernmentTabled Answered 21 April 2026UIN 126709

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the Answer of 19 March 2026 to Question 120874, whether his Department plans to publish the baseline information it holds on private parking appeals; and if he will provide a breakdown of the number of disputes and appeals relating to private parking charges for each of the last five years.

Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh

The government does not hold a breakdown of the number of disputes and appeals relating to private parking charges for each of the last five years.

Some baseline information on private parking appeals includes information already in the public domain such as the trade associations’ annual reports and these may be accessed via the IAS and POPLA sites.

Any other relevant information will be published in the government response when the Code is laid in autumn 2026.
