Minister announces extension of free car parking for HSC Staff
Date published:
Health Minister Robin Swann has approved a further period of free car parking for HSC staff from 1 April to 31 July (inclusive).
Minister Swann said:- “I have asked Trusts to proceed with putting in place arrangements to extend free parking for staff for another four months. I am aware that with the hope of further recovery from the pandemic and associated rebuilding of the HSC, it is anticipated that many more parking spaces will be required for patients and visitors.
“This will mean that it will not be possible to provide onsite free car parking for staff to the same levels as in the first two periods, and my officials are working with Trusts and others on a range of potential offsite solutions. Trusts will be keeping staff informed at a local level.”
