To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 4 March 2026 to Question 116225, what estimate she has made of when speed camera enforcement affected by the technical anomaly on motorways and A-roads will fully resume; and whether she will publish a timetable for restoration.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 4 March 2026 to Question 116225, what estimate she has made of when speed camera enforcement affected by the technical anomaly on motorways and A-roads will fully resume; and whether she will publish a timetable for restoration.
The Department is working closely with National Highways, the Home Office, and the National Police Chiefs’ Council to ensure the Home Office approved solution for cameras affected by the anomaly is implemented as quickly as possible, once rigorous testing is complete.
This anomaly originated from an upgrade to speed cameras which started in 2019 under the previous government.
The police continue to enforce speeding offences on the network, and the public must comply with the speed limits in place at all times.
We will keep the House updated on this issue where necessary.
I thank my hon. Friend for that. Obviously, the air space does not exist within the Bill alone. The tax changes will have huge implications, whether at Blackpool airport or at Humberside airport, which I visited recently. They face life-and-death pressures that will decide whether they continue to be going...

I just wanted to make it very clear that I was in no way questioning what Mr Speaker decided. When he spoke to me, he made it very clear that his understanding was that the Government were going to make a statement. [Interruption.] Government Front Benchers may shake their heads,...

Thank you very much, Madam Deputy Speaker. The point I was making was that I was basically being accused by the Minister of saying something that I had not said. I just wanted to make clear what was said, because the real question here is one of parliamentary scrutiny.

On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. Members have not had the chance today to properly raise the NATS blackout, which has affected over 100,000 passengers and cost UK aviation tens of millions of pounds. The Secretary of State has not indicated that the Government will provide a statement...

I thank the right hon. Lady for her comments and for recognising the NATS issue. However, given its importance to the House, will she make a statement tomorrow so that questions can be asked then, rather than during a Second Reading debate? Members across House have lots of questions about...

Before I turn to the Bill, let me comment on the events of the last 24 hours, which have shown just how important effective oversight of our aviation sector is. The shocking failure at NATS has left hundreds of thousands of passengers in the lurch, and serious questions have been...

The hon. Lady makes a very clear case for why such a review of airport parking charges is necessary. One has not happened for a decade. It was great to get the support of the Liberal Democrats in the other place in backing Lord Moylan and the Conservative proposals in...

The Department has made no such assessment; these are matters for local authorities.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the answer of 9 March 2026 to Question 115864 on Street Trading: Westminster Bridge, whether she has issued guidance to the police on enforcing the law on dangerous parking in areas of decriminalised parking enforcement; and what...

Decriminalised parking enforcement, rests with local authorities, who are best placed to manage local road networks and issue penalty charge notices. This is set out in statutory guidance for local authorities in England on civil enforcement of parking contraventions issued by Department for Transport. This approach removes a burden from the police, allowing them to focus on criminal activity.
However, the police retain powers to act where vehicles are dangerously or obstructively parked, including powers to remove those vehicles where necessary.
Operational decisions about enforcement activity, including on red lines and areas of decriminalised parking enforcement such as Westminster Bridge, are primarily for Transport for London, the relevant local authorities and on some occasions police, to decide, according to the specific circumstances.
The Home Office has not issued specific guidance to police forces on enforcing dangerous parking in areas subject to decriminalised parking enforcement. The police decide operational responses, based on specific circumstances, according to threat and risk assessments.
The Home Office has not made an assessment of the effectiveness of enforcement activity in relation to ice cream vans or pedicabs parked on red lines on Westminster Bridge. Enforcement in this case is primarily a matter for Transport for London and the local authority responsible for red routes and street trading,

Local authorities in England, Scotland and Wales are responsible for delivering trading standards services, aiming to ensure fair trading and safeguard both consumers and reputable businesses. Trading standards services operate independently from central government and enforce a wide range of laws, tailored to local needs.
Where issues impact on a wider group of consumers or businesses, or the detriment is particularly high, other regulators have power to take action. For instance, National Trading Standards plays a role in delivery of broader national and regional enforcement issues, supported by local trading standards services.
We keep this system under review, and the Department for Business and Trade is reviewing the current duties of Trading Standards to ensure that consumers remain protected from harm. My department is working with the Home Office, Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and other Whitehall Departments in this work.
The Business Secretary and the Chief Secretary to the Prime Minister recently wrote jointly to Cabinet colleagues to ask them to set out what further action they plan to take in this Parliament to address consumer harms in their areas, including on toughening enforcement actions against conduct and businesses that do the most harm to the community.
We will report back on this work in due course.
Over the past few decades there has been a consensus in politics that disability should not prevent people from living fulfilling and successful lives.

The hon. Lady makes an important point. I will add, though, that disabled people often choose to use a car, if one is available, because it is the most convenient means of getting around; it means that they can travel at times that suit them. I totally agree that we...

I think the hon. Member should reflect on the fact that he voted last week for a policy that hammers those rural transport users more than anyone else, not at some theoretical time in the future but from September this year, increasing in December and again in March next year....

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the answer of 20 November 2025 to Question 91458 on Roads: Local Government, whether his Department holds that data.
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the answer of 20 November 2025 to Question 91458 on Roads: Local Government, whether his Department holds that data.
The department collects data about local authorities’ expenditure and income relating to all services through the General Fund Revenue Outturn data collection. This includes data on traffic management and road safety but with the exception of congestion charging, this is not broken down into the requested categories. The information for the financial year 2024 to 2025 can be found within the RO2 tables on lines 51 to 58.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, which councils applied to the July 2025 tranche of applications for moving traffic offence enforcement fining powers.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, which councils applied to the July 2025 tranche of applications for moving traffic offence enforcement fining powers.
In July 2025, the following local authorities applied to the Secretary of State for designated powers to carry out civil enforcement in respect of contraventions of moving traffic restrictions:
Brighton and Hove City Council, the Borough Council of Calderdale, Cornwall Council, Dorset Council, Kirklees Borough Council, Knowsley Metropolitan Borough Council, Milton Keynes City Council and Slough Borough Council. The applicable Designation Order (SI:2025/1181) came into force on 9 December 2025 in respect of these local authorities.
A number of parking sector stakeholders conducted research into the issue of penalty charging levels, the findings of which we previously deposited in the House of Commons Library at the following link: https://depositedpapers.parliament.uk/depositedpaper/2287543/files. Officials are reviewing the research and its findings, and that will then inform decisions about next steps.
The Department plans to publish the findings of the Call for Evidence: 'Restricting the generation of surplus funds from traffic contraventions' – commissioned by the previous Government – shortly.
