THERE is no justification for increased parking charges at Oxford hospitals. The hospital trust should delete the word ‘trust’ from its title (Oxford Mail, June 26).

The ‘trust’ seems to be an independent organisation, funded by the taxpayer, answerable to no one.

How is it any Government can stand by and let this happen? Unless this Government approves of this action by the ‘trust’ as MP Tony Baldry does by defending the increase.

If I read the sums involved it would seem that there is a drop in revenue takings from the car parks, so to remedy this, the trust is increasing car park charges which will lead to fewer motorists using the car parks.
