Hospital Car Parking Charges

Proceeding contribution from Mike Wood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 February 2018. It occurred during Backbench debate on Hospital Car Parking Charges.

As my hon. Friend says, part of the problem is that so many hospital trusts are locked into long-term PFI contracts. Many of them were negotiated in the late 1990s or early 2000s and will shortly be coming up for renewal or expiry. Does she agree that now is the time to look at what provisions we can put in place to ensure that, as the contracts are renewed, they do not contain exploitative provisions that allow hospital trusts to take patients, as well as their families and visitors, for mugs by overcharging them for parking?
