Therefore, the fine and removal of vehicles due to inappropriate parking in places exclusively allocated to electric vehicles would be legitimized through the use of authorised parking signalling for vehicles of such category only. The National Direction of PSP informed that when a vehicle is parked in a supply station exclusively for electric vehicles the legal penalty should be a fine and not its removal if the supply station is not properly signalled. In what concerns the coordination model between all supervising authorities the PSP informed they comply with the Parking Regulations in the Lisbon city and the Decree-Law No. 44/2005 of 23rd February. On another side, the Municipal Police of Lisbon acknowledged a poor coordination with other supervising bodies and their lack of information resources to identify and locate all supply stations existent in Lisbon. Although there is a single call centre there is no coordination or procedural uniformity handling the calls. Thus, an interinstitutional coordination is necessary involving all supervising bodies, which is to say PSP, EMEL, and Municipal Police. Lastly, given the absence of a supply stations inventory in the Lisbon county there is an urgent need of a uniform signalling towards to parking regulation in those places. • Recommendation No. 3/A/2016 Case Q-4042/15 Entity addressed: National Director of the Public security Police Date: 2016/07/20 Subject: Combustion vehicles at supply stations for electric vehicles.
