Blue Badge Amnesty


Whilst East Sussex Council roll out "Operation Bluebird", which has received £183,000 from the Government to help fund policing of, and prosecution of, the fraudulent use of blue badges, they have announced an amnesty from Mondays 8th June to 22nd June.

It is estimated that 20% of blue badges are used fraudulently. East Sussex Councillor Carl Maynard said "I would urge those illegally using a Blue Badge to do the right thing and take full advantage of the amnesty. For those who continue to use the permit fraudulently, we will take action."  

Among other places in Hastings where blue badges can be handed in, is Hastings main library in Claremont, for further information and details of other amnesty sites, go to the East Sussex Council website.
