They have reduced Police here, and de-criminalised parking which means that the number of parking, er, people has increased. And so has the number of mistakes made by councils trying to enforce this stuff and so has the cost of the appeals. I'm not entirely sure this is a priority.
Especially when the vehicles doing the catching are parked illegally themselves...
(EDIT - Double Yellow lines in the UK means no parking or stopping).
