§ 3. Mr. C. S. Taylorasked the Minister of Transport how far his regulations preclude the parking of motor cars in a street which is not designated a yellow band street, provided the parked motor vehicles cause no obstruction.
§ Mr. CallaghanThere are no regulations which make it automatically an offence to park a vehicle in a street not specifically subject to an order restricting waiting.
§ Mr. TaylorDoes the Parliamentary Secretary realise that a large number of police are employed in taking particulars of cars parked in streets that are not yellow banded? What is the point of having yellow painted lamp-posts and arrows if parking is not permitted in streets which have no yellow bands and arrows?
§ Mr. CallaghanThere are regulations which make it an offence to park a vehicle in other streets if it causes unnecessary obstruction.
§ Mr. TaylorYes, Sir, but if the hon. Member reads the Question he will see that it refers to motor vehicles which do not cause any obstruction.
