Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: Warwickshire County Council - Code 30 Parked for longer than permitted

No reason of relevance for the delay in returning.
Thank you for the information. On the rear of the PCN it does state that
"making an informal challenge does not prevent the owner from making formal representations upon receipt of the Notice to Owner"
and also in reference to the NtO
"The owner can either pay or make representations and may appeal to an independent adjudicator if their representations are rejected. The NtO will contain instructions on how to do this".
Am I understanding correctly that they should have stated that representations MUST be made to the enforcement agency as directed in the NtO if received, as any informal representations would then be irrelevant? (e.g. if I were to submit an informal appeal after the NtO were generated but prior to reaching me, I would never have an appeal considered?)
If that is the case, would you consider the below be a suitable appeal?
Good afternoon,
The issued PCN does not contain the required statutory information as per The Civil Enforcement of Road Traffic Contraventions (Representations and Appeals) (England) Regulations 2022 - Regulation 3(1)(c) and therefore does not confirm with rules required for a PCN to be valid.
I therefore reject the validity of this PCN and require confirmation that you have deemed it void.
Apologies for the extra questions, just ensuring I am fully understanding this before submitting anything.
