The request was successful.

Slough Times 01753-511911

Hallo,

(1) In 2014, DCLG published Eric Pickles' idea to give the public more ability to challenge their local authority's street parking policies.

(2) HMG's response at https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/sy...

(3) The ultimate paragraph (on page 7) is:-

"The Government will publish guidance for all local authorities adopting civil parking enforcement powers on putting in place a petition scheme that will allow local residents and businesses to challenge parking policies. This guidance will include best practice advice on the details of such a scheme, covering setting appropriate minimum thresholds for valid petitions, minimum requirements for information, the appropriate grounds for rejecting a petition, and managing the response to petitions. This guidance will be issued under Section 18 of the Traffic Management Act 2004."

(4) Was the anticipated guidance issued ?

(5) Where on the Internet might one find a copy ?

Thank you.
