A recent TRO says resident's will be charged 50% off parking permits for vehicles in Bands A & B of Vehicle Exise Duty. Where is the connection between CO2 emissions and parking? If my car is parked with the engine off ,it is not polluting,if it is running it is.

Which TRO ?
Has this 'discount' been publicised ? What was publicised was that parking charges would increase.

Does the emissions discount apply to visitors?

At this rate, wardens might need a Ph.D in "Parking Studies".
