Richmond Park: Parking

Volume 494: debated on Friday 26 June 2009

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport when his Department expects to receive recommendations from the Royal Parks Agency following the Agency’s recent consultation on the proposal to introduce car park charging in Richmond Park; and if he will make a statement. (281880)

The Royal Parks has had a very large response to its consultation on changes to the Park Regulations. The results are currently being analysed with the expectation that the Agency will make its recommendations to Ministers by the end of July. I will carefully consider the recommendations and I have already agreed to meet the hon. Member prior to making any decision.
