Workplace Parking Licensing (Scotland) Regulations 2022

Submission from Transform Scotland to the Convener, 18 February 2022

Dear Sir/Madam

Please find attached a briefing from Transform Scotland on the Workplace Parking Licensing (Scotland) Regulations 2022 in advance of Tuesday’s NZET Committee meeting.

We hold The City of Edinburgh Council and Glasgow City Council within our membership, both of whom have indicated that they are minded to use the WPL powers granted to them by the Transport Act 2019. As such, we are are opposed to the proposal that these discretionary powers be removed from Local Authorities.

I hope you find our briefing paper of interest.

Best regards

Colin Howden

Director, Transform Scotland
