Thorsson

I suspect he has a pecuniary interest in them being reputable. Can I say that?

The Parking Bill is due to finish its House of Commons Stages (Report and Third Reading) on 23rd November 2018. It's the second item on that day after the Stalking Protection Bill, so it should get through. Then its off to the House of Lords.

I'm not a usual person. I am a trained accountant (although the training was a fair while ago now). I have a lot of experience in contract negotiations, debt chasing, dealing with lawyers, etc. My current work requires a lot of analysis and critical thinking. I advise government departments and large companies. I've been around the block a few times and I've been using the internet pretty much since it started.

Oh, and as my wife would tell you, I'm a bit obsessive.

However, I have no idea who Carol Phoenix is (although that post has now been edited, so maybe the poster had no idea either).

I spotted a "Trump misspoken" moment in that transcript, It's where somebody called the BPA a "reputable organisation". Surely he meant to say "disreputable"?

I noticed that, wonder what part they have played
in this ?
It seems they will be expected to pay to operate this and
with a new scrutiny board (last one they sacked), the BPA
could well run into trouble

I say this assuming the BPA will still be an ATA and as this is
very close to being a saturated industry where new members
will be gold dust, it must make sense to close down the scam
IPC and migrate IPC members back to the BPA who will then
be on a tight leash to behave themselves, or lose access to
the DVLA which of course will bankrupt an ignorant scammer

The BPA have let themselves down very badly, POPLA is
in a complete mess. the current BPA members are out
of control

PS: The closing of the IPC should be easy for the government,
using their own words, "they are not in the interests of the public"

The question must be ..... who in the House of Lords has an
interest in the scam industry ????

The Parking (Code of Practice) Bill has had its Third Reading in the House of Lords today. Item can be viewed on Parliament TV - House of Lords. Item is at 15:08:21 today. Written record will follow later. Just needs Royal Ascent to become law which will happen quickly.



Practically this now means the MHCLG will work to create the code will consultation. This is will likely include public consultation once the code is written, and they will have to run a procurement to get an independent appeals service. The MHCLG also need to put the code and statutory instruments to make the parking companies pay for this regulation into Parliament. Whole thing is likely to take 10 months to a year (subject to BREXIT demands of Parliament of course).
