Yes, with restrictions.
Must only be used between 6am and 10pm and only for purposes legitimately related to the motor trade (trade or repair).

So lets say the vehicle in question was parked in a P+D spot,paid for its parking yet displayed a trade plate would the plate still be valid in this circumstance?

Well they would still be liable to P&D if they were using the spot, even if within their remit of motor trade purposes.

But are still exempt from displaying road tax and still complying with their motor trade remit ?

Yeah, IMO it's apples and oranges.

They're exempt from the road tax whilst engaged in legitimate motor trade purposes but not exempt from paying for parking if their legitimate purpose requires parking.

Let me guess - the trade plates were inside the car on the dash and on the back shelf?
