Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many children under the age of three have a blue parking badge in (a) England, (b) Scotland and (c) Wales.

This response only covers England because the Blue Badge scheme is devolved.

There are 2311 Blue Badges on issue to children in England under the age of three who are either dependent upon bulky medical equipment or need to be kept near a vehicle for emergency medical treatment.

We do not hold records for children between the ages of two and three who have been issued a Blue Badge under the general walking criterion as this criterion is open to anyone over the age of 2 years. Local authorities would have this data.
