I would like to present a petition against increases in Scunthorpe hospital car parking charges and to commend the work of local councillors Haque Kataria and Mashook Ali for the leadership they have shown in working with the local community to raise this petition.

The petition states:

The Petition of residents of Scunthorpe,

Declares that the Petitioners are very concerned that car parking prices at Scunthorpe General Hospital have been increased from September 2013.

The Petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the hospital to think of local constituents who are affected by this price increase and reconsider their decision.

And the Petitioners remain, etc.

[P001315]
