A Bill to make provision for exempting carers from hospital car parking charges; and for connected purposes.
House of Commons
13 May 2016
The Hospital Parking Charges (Exemption for Carers) Bill would create an exemption from hospital car parking charges for carers visiting or supporting someone in hospital. It aims to reduce the ongoing costs faced by unpaid carers and to make visiting and providing care easier during hospital stays. The exemption would be defined and administered under the bill’s rules to ensure clarity and fairness.
The bill is at the 2nd reading in the House of Commons, where MPs discuss the general principle. If supported, it would move to committee stage for detailed scrutiny and then progress to the Lords for consideration.
