Parking: Local Government
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether his Department is taking steps to encourage local authorities to review the provision of parent and child parking spaces in council-owned car parks.
Answered by Nesil Caliskan
The provision and design of parking facilities in council‑owned car parks, including parent and child bays, is the responsibility of individual local authorities, which are best placed to determine local provision based on the needs of their communities.
The department has made no assessment of the adequacy of parent and child parking provision.
