​I have no regulatory role in relation to the clamping of vehicles. 

The Vehicle Clamping Act 2015 was signed into law by the President on May 6. Under this Act the National Transport Authority will be the national independent regulator for clamping activities wherever clamping is used as a means of parking control. I am currently consulting with the NTA concerning the appropriate time to commence the legislation with a view to ensuring that the new arrangements operate effectively.
