Traffic Violations

Volume 455: debated on Tuesday 16 January 2007

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many traffic violations resulting in fixed penalties being issued there were in Northern Ireland in (a) November 2005 and (b) November 2006. (105284)

I have been informed by the police service of Northern Ireland of the following:

Notice type

Notices issued November 2005

Notices issued November 20061

Endorsable FPNs

1,374

1,260

Non Endorsable FPNs

3,634

2,478

Parking FPNs

6,777

532

1 Figures for notices issued during November are correct as of 5 December 2006.

From 30 October 2006, the responsibility for on street parking enforcement passed to the Roads Service of the Department for Regional Development. PSNI therefore no longer hold records in respect of those parking offences which fall within the responsibility of the Department for Regional Development. PSNI still enforce a number of specified offences such as obstruction, parking on a pedestrian crossing etc.
