By virtue of paragraph (3) of the inserted regulation 5C, where a vehicle is in a parking place, the power of removal under that regulation does not arise until the expiry of “the appropriate period” as defined by paragraph (4).\nA full impact assessment of the effect that this instrument will have on the costs of business and the voluntary sector is available from Traffic Management Division, Department for Transport, 2/06 Great Minster House, 76 Marsham Street, London SWIP 4DR (telephone 020 7944 8692) and can be found on the website of the Department for Transport at www.dft.gov.uk/.",
