PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Motability (4 March 2015)

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what advice is available to owners of tax exempt vehicles supplied under the Motability scheme on how to ensure that they are not penalised incorrectly for parking without payment.

Asked by:
Sir Christopher Chope (Conservative)

The Motability Scheme does not in itself provide any parking concessions. Users of the Motability Scheme may be eligible for a Blue Badge under the Blue Badge Scheme which provides a range of parking concessions for people with severe mobility problems who have difficulty using public transport. The Department for Transport does not produce advice about Motability, which is an independent charitable organisation, but does provide information both to local authorities who administer the Blue Badge Scheme, and to Blue Badge holders.
