Require car parks to have an on-site payment point

Make it a legal requirement for all car parks to provide a physical payment machine for cash and/or card. I think that without a working payment machine, fines must be unenforceable.

Make coercive control in under-16s relationships a criminal offence

Amend the Serious Crime Act 2015 so controlling or coercive behaviour in intimate relationships between under-16s is a criminal offence. Current law only applies where both parties are 16 or over, which can leave younger victims without pro
