What accompanies this letter to prove that the writer has the authority they claim e.g. council tax bill, utility bill (in the same name) etc?

Feel like I shouldn’t have to submit this? Council can verify his name against their records.

Could have been written by anybody who knows thr name of the neighbour.

Needs to be accompanied by soemthing only that neighbour would possess in order to prove it was written by the neighbour  (eg council tax bill)

OP, where is the occupier's written authority pl?

Register an appeal. Let's not waste too much time on this IMO.

The NOR is about as bad as they get with multiple procedural improprieties.

Just register:
Contravention did not occur;
Procedural impropriety.

The letter is outright misleading tosh!
Wait for the advice of others who can examine your thread in more detail. I consider yr brother has grounds to appeal to LT, so do not miss deadline to register appeal (rejection dated 18th August)

 If you haven't got the PCN, then please post the full text of the alleged contravention. You should submit a photo-copy of the neighbour's letter; never, ever, trust councils.

Brother has received a rejection in relation to a PCN appeal for parking on a driveway in which he had permission to do so. Don’t have a picture of original PCN but was the yellow ticket on the car. I assume would be same format as PCN I had received (please see link to thread: https://www.ftla.uk/civil-penalty-charge-notices-(councils-tfl-and-so-on)/code-27-pcn-redbridge-driveway/ )

Rejection letter

I don’t have wording for original appeal but the main point was that he had permission to park there.

Background - We have permission from our neighbour to park here and I have now got a signed letter from him confirming this which I will include in appeal to ETA. Someone has obviously complained but it is not their driveway so they have no right.
