Provision of dedicated car parking bays for MPs with young children would be a simple way of making the House of Commons more family-friendly and a small step towards reducing the burden on MPs who are also the primary carers of their children. It is a straightforward measure that you would expect to see at any car park for a large public building. We recommend the House of Commons’ Head of Access and Services swiftly review the availability of ground level parking spaces close to the Chamber and, taking into account the needs of disabled Blue Badge holders, designate the maximum possible number for parent and child parking. We further recommend that the Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body consider the provision of accessible car parking spaces as part of its Outline Business Base for Restoration and Renewal.
