The Government has no plans to abolish hospital car parking charges. We have delivered on our commitment of providing free hospital car parking for those in greatest need, including National Health Service staff working overnight. The NHS Car Parking guidance is clear that where hospital car parking charges are in force, they should be reasonable and not significantly more than other hospitals in the local area.
