Formal representations done. If it helps others:
I am authorised by ********* act in this matter. I also wrote the same representations below for ****** re PCN ZN15420846, which you cancelled. I am also aware that you cancelled ZN15564584 for which the same representations* were made as advised by me. Therefore, under The Nolan Principles I request that you do the same.
*
The PCN wrongly states which action triggers the period in which the council
may serve a charge certificate: “If the Penalty Charge is not paid before the end
of the period of 28 days beginning with the date of service of this notice an
increased charge of £195.00 maybe payable. We may then send you a Charge
Certificate.” The law states at Schedule 1 5:
1)Where a penalty charge notice is served on any person and the penalty charge
to which it relates is not paid before the end of the relevant period, the
enforcing authority may serve on that person a statement (in this paragraph
referred to as a “charge certificate”) to the effect that the penalty charge in
question is increased by 50 per cent.
(2)The relevant period, in relation to a penalty charge notice is the period of 28
days beginning—
(a)where no representations are made under paragraph 1 above, with the date
on which the penalty charge notice is served;
Considering the above, the PCN is invalid and unenforceable.
Finally, I refer you to and rely upon Case No: 224038612A in which I was the representative. Should you not agree to do so, I am prepared to take the matter to the Tribunal on and will be making a formal complaint in terms of the said Principles. Clearly, when you cancel one person’s ticket for the same reasons you must treat another person in the same manner.
Furthermore, there is no adequate warning signage.
