Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will make an assessment of the potential impact of raising the level of Penalty Charge Notices on the number of parking offenders outside London.

We have no current plans to raise the PCN levels. It is important to strike the right balance between deterrence and fairness on this issue.
