Following this the Built Environment, Policy and Scrutiny Committee give their “recommendations” (or pre thought decisions) on the experiment, after which Cllr Danny Chalkley (Spear head of the experimental tax) will make a final decision which will be released in the next few weeks we have been informed. Please leave your comments.

Westminster pre-scrutiny meeting report, what a load of toilet rubbish. Download a copy.
Westminster have issued an 18 page report of the bike parking tax [Download PDF] ahead of the meeting, where the scrutiny committee are supposed to do just that, scrutinise the report and the experimental bike parking tax. In the meeting above the campaign presented 6 speakers all of which are refuting the report, and the experimental parking charge and will be saying everything you guys have wanted to say to Westminster directly, let us hope they listen and are not foolish enough to continue the experiment, or make it permanent for that matter. In the report they do offer suggestions for compromise… which we are having none off, the report itself is full of errors, they cannot even add up their own figures.
Download the report by none other than “One size Fitsall” (Keiran Fitsall).
