Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether the (a) Local Government Association and (b) Parking and Traffic Regulations Outside London statutory joint committee is subject to the (a) Freedom of Information Act 2000 and (b) Environmental Information Regulations.

My understanding is that both the Local Government Association (LGA) and the Parking and Traffic Regulations Outside London statutory joint committee (PATROL) are subject to the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.
