Chris Inquires About Source of DVLA Fees
Christopher Chope Conservative, Christchurch
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what the gross income of the DVLA was from fees for providing information about the personal details of the keepers of vehicles registered on the DVLA database in each of the last four years for which information is available; and how much of that income came from commercial parking companies.
Guy Opperman Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
The income from fees for providing information about keepers of vehicles registered on the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) database is shown in the table below:
£m
2019 – 2023.29
2020 – 2113.18
2021 – 2223.90
2022 – 2330.18
These fees are set to cover the costs of providing services to its customers.
The specific information requested about commercial parking companies is not held. The DVLA does publish information about who it shares its data with on GOV.UK. This includes volumes for enquiries made through the keeper at date of event (KADOE) service which provides details of the registered vehicle keeper on a specified date. This report includes electronic enquiries made by parking companies and can be viewed using the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/who-dvla-shares-data-with.
