Mr. Eldon Griffiths
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will publish in the Official Report the approximate annual cost for each policy authority area of traffic wardens and the approximate income in each area from parking meters and other public parking facilities that are serviced by traffic wardens.
Mr. Brittan
The cost of the pay of traffic wardens in each police authority in the year 1978–79 is given in the table below.The other elements of the annual cost of running the traffic warden service in each area cannot be obtained without disproportionate expense. The revenue obtained from parking meters is a matter for local authorities.
