A disabled person’s badge (also known as a “Blue Badge”) may be issued by a local authority to disabled persons resident in its area, for display in a motor vehicle driven or used by them. The display of a disabled person’s badge enables the holder to benefit from a range of parking concessions and exemptions from certain charges which apply to other motorists. The Disabled Persons (Badges for Motor Vehicles) (England) Regulations 2000 (“the 2000 Regulations”) make provision regarding the issue of the badges by local authorities. These Regulations amend the 2000 Regulations.
