A crack down on rip off parking charges by private firms could end excessive fees and inflated fines forced upon motorists, Communities Secretary Eric Pickles has announced.
Measures could help small shops and town centres by stopping extortionate charges that are a deterrent to shopping locally and instead drive people to shop in out-of-town centres or online.
