Hospital Car Parking Charges

Proceeding contribution from Jim Cunningham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 1 September 2014. It occurred during Backbench debate on Hospital Car Parking Charges.

I congratulate the hon. Member for Harlow (Robert Halfon) on securing the debate; I assisted—if that is the right word—him in that. Does the hon. Lady agree that although car parking charges are far too high for a number of groups of people—my hon. Friend the Member for Coventry North West (Mr Robinson) and I have been campaigning for years in Coventry to get them reduced—it would take the muscle of the Secretary of State to help here, because not all car parking charges are based on PFI. There are hospitals that do not have a PFI, but those charges are built into their budgets.
