The Secretary of State may make regulations for the purpose of giving each English local transport authority the power to impose a prohibition on the parking of motor vehicles on the footways and verges which form part of the relevant highways in the authority’s area.

But parking regulations may not give an English local transport authority the power to impose a prohibition on parking in any place that is not in a civil enforcement area for parking contraventions under Part 2 of Schedule 8 to the Traffic Management Act 2004.

Parking regulations may make provision about the meaning of “parking” (and cognate expressions) for the purposes of parking prohibitions.

Parking regulations may amend an Act passed before, or in the same session as, this Act.

Parking regulations are subject to affirmative procedure.

Paragraphs 2 to 9 deal with particular kinds of provision that may be made by parking regulations.
