Roads—parking infringements
(Question No 2105)

Dr Foskey asked the Attorney-General, upon notice, on 25 June 2008:

In relation to the response to question on notice No 2073, why has the number of parking infringements decreased each year since 2004.

Mr Corbell: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

The number of parking infringements issued since 2004 has decreased due to:

(a) The loss of approximately 3,700 Territory off street pay parking spaces due to redevelopment in Civic, Belconnen, Woden and Tuggeranong; and

(b) Fluctuating parking officer levels since the formation of the Office of Regulatory Services in 2006.
