Private parking code of practice
Applies to England, Scotland and Wales
Consultation description
The Parking (Code of Practice) Act 2019 (the Act) requires the Secretary of State to prepare a code of practice containing guidance about the operation and management of private parking facilities. The Act is applicable across England, Scotland and Wales.
The government’s code of practice contains:
- guidance that promotes good practice in the operation and management of private parking facilities
- guidance about appeals against private parking charges imposed by, or on behalf of, persons providing private parking facilities
This consultation seeks views on the government proposed measures aimed at raising standards in the private parking industry before launching the Code of Practice.
This is a public consultation and we welcome views from anyone who has an interest in private parking. However, views are especially invited from:
- car park users
- those who represent the interests of motorists
- the parking industry
- landowners
- businesses involved in debt recovery
