Road Traffic (Parking Adjudicators) (East Lothian Council) Regulations 2016 (SS1 2016/409)

Item 3 is consideration of three negative instruments as detailed on the agenda. This package of instruments will introduce a decriminalised parking regime in the East Lothian Council area. Following its previous consideration of decriminalised parking regulations in the Highland Council area, the committee requested further information on the income and expenditure resulting from the implementation of such schemes in other local authority areas, and the response can be found in annex A of committee paper 3.

The committee will now consider any issues that it wishes to raise in reporting to the Parliament on the instruments. Members should note that no motions to annul have been received. If no member wishes to comment, can we agree that the committee wishes to make no recommendation on the instruments?

Members indicated agreement.

That concludes the public part of today’s meeting. We now move into private session.
