Parking Charges

May 2nd, 2017 by James Goudie KC

On 27 April 2017 the Parking Places (Variation of Charges) Act 2017, extending to England and Wales, received the Royal Assent. It makes provision in relation to the procedure to be followed by local authorities when varying, from 2 months after this date, the charges to be paid in connection with the use of certain parking places.  Section 1 relates to the procedure for varying charges at off-street parking places.  It amends Section 35C of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984. Section 2 of the 2017 Act relates to the procedure for varying charges at designated parking places.  It amends Section 46A of the 1984 Act.  Regulations under Section 35C and 46A of the 1984 Act may now make “different provision for different purposes”.
