Transport (Scotland) Act 2019

National exemptions

426.Section 79(1) sets out the workplace parking places that are to be exempt from charges under all workplace parking licensing schemes. These are places for the exclusive use of persons using motor vehicles displaying certain specified disabled badges, places at hospices and places at qualifying NHS premises. Although these parking places are to be exempt from charges, licensing schemes may, under subsection (2)(a), require premises at which those places are located to hold a licence in respect of those places. Subsection (2)(b) allows a licensing scheme to specify that workplace parking places at qualifying NHS premises that are provided for persons who do not provide services for the health service are not to be exempt from charges.

427.Subsection (3) defines “qualifying NHS premises” to include a health service hospital under section 108(1) of the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978, a state hospital within the meaning of section 102(2) of that Act, any other premises occupied by a Health Board or Special Health Board, premises used wholly or mainly for the provision of primary medical services or such other similar premises as the Scottish Ministers may specify.
