Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if she will publish an impact assessment for the private parking code of practice.

The Government is committed to delivering a single Code of Practice for private parking companies to follow, as part of this process we will undergo a public consultation to assess the impact of the Code.

We are currently reviewing all options and will announce our plans regarding the code in due course.

My officials meet regularly with the two private parking trade associations and consumer groups and I am due to meet with them soon.
