Simon Lightwood

Labour (Co-op) — Wakefield and Rothwell

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 September 2025

Debate

Pavement Parking

Contribution

The previous Government consulted on pavement parking rules back in 2020 but failed to take any action. We have had to pick up the issue from scratch since we came into office last year. A lot has changed in the UK political landscape in the past five years, and this Government’s genuine commitment to devolution has shaped our thinking on pavement parking. We will be able to say more about that, and finally publish a response to the consultation, soon.
