Draft reps:
Dear London Borough of Brent,
In the first instance I contend the PCN should be cancelled because any contravention can be properly described as de-minimis, the stopping time being around 5 seconds or so.
Furthermore I dispute the validity of the PCN because the payment deadlines are ambiguous and unclear. The PCN asserts that I have 28 days from the date of the notice to make payment, but this is follow by text indicating that the date of service is considered to be 2 working days from the date of the notice. If the payment period is 28 days from the date of the notice then the date of service would be irrelevant, so is appears that the PCN should assert the payment period is 28 days from the date of service of the notice. On the other hand if the payment period is 28 days from the date of the notice, then it would make no sense to indicate how the date of service is to be calculated, as the date of service would be irrelevant. The same ambiguity and uncertainty applies to the 14 day discount period.
In the circumstances the PCN is ambiguous and confusing as to what the payment period is, so the PCN should be cancelled.
Yours faithfully,
