NO here Pieter 
Street parking meters and ticketing for illegal parking is private company.
Speed cameras are "partnerships" with Police, but in reality it's a private company.
Problem is the private companies give targets to their staff, so they can be over-zealous.. It's now VERY common to be given a fixed penalty fine of £30 4 mins after a parking ticket time !
