Foxasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware that, despite the introduction in the Metropolitan area of restricted streets where yellow bands indicate that car parking is not permitted, the police are continuing to take action against drivers of cars who, avoiding the restricted streets, park their cars in non-restricted streets; and whether in view of the misunderstandings which exist in this connection he will make a statement clarifying the present position.
