Employers inside the Nottingham City Council administrative boundary that provide any workplace parking places will be legally required to get a WPL licence by 1st October 2011.

Employers that provide 11 or more workplace parking places (excluding registered Disabled Blue Badge Holders) will need to pay a WPL charge from 1st April 2012.

Employers that provide 10 or fewer workplace parking places are entitled to a 100% discount, and will not have to pay any WPL charge, although will need to license these places. This means that approximately 85% of employers in Nottingham will not have to pay.
