Parking wardens will lose incentives
The Independent

Incentives to encourage parking wardens to issue more tickets and clamp more cars are to be banned under guidelines issued by the Government after a withering report by MPs on the "mess" in Britain's parking laws.
The army of 15,000 wardens helped to raise £450m in fines for local authorities by issuing 7.1 million notices. But the over-zealous enforcement of parking laws is to be curbed under the proposals to be issued by the Transport Secretary, Douglas Alexander, next month.
