Hospitals: Parking
(asked on 22nd May 2019) - View Source
Question to the Northern Ireland Office:
If she will hold discussions with the Northern Ireland Executive on the abolition of hospital car parking charges in Northern Ireland.
This question was answered on 22nd May 2019
The matter of hospital car parking is devolved in Northern Ireland and it would not be appropriate for the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland to intervene.
In the absence of devolved government it remains for NI Permanent Secretaries to take the decisions they believe necessary in line with the guidance the Secretary of State set out last November, to keep the country running.
