He asked: “Can the portfolio holder confirm that as in previous years that the council will again be supporting our shopping centres with ‘Free after 3’ parking during December in its own car parks across County Durham and on-street in Durham City?”
Coun Carl Marshall, cabinet member for economic regeneration, replied ‘yes’.
