Response
Scottish Borders Council do not employ any traffic wardens as the enforcement of all On Street issues are the responsibility of Police Scotland at www.scotland.police.uk.. Therefore we give notice under s17 of FOI(S)A 2002 and declare that the information is not held, However Scottish Borders Council do employ parking attendants but only to enforce our Off Street Pay and Display car parks.
