I practice law in the Traffic Penalty Tribunal, London Tribunals, the First-tier tribunal for Scotland, and the Traffic Penalty Tribunal for Northern Ireland, but I am not a solicitor or a barrister. Notwithstanding this, I voluntarily apply the cab rank rule. I am a member of the Society of Professional McKenzie Friends, my membership number is FM193 and I abide by the SPMF service standards.

I don't think the article made it entirely clear it is a subset of redroute penalties that it applies to.

I understand there is a JR of the decision in progress and you are encouraging individuals to join.

But what then ?

If TFL loses is it then binding (pending further appeal)?

This will presumably mean job ads for more CEOs and TFL lobbying for a law change to enable CCTV enforcement.

It would be frustrating if they obtained that wish and CCTV enforcement restarted. Possibly nationwide.

It would presumably also mean all previous PCNs would be void, but would that force TFL to refund them all or would it be "on demand".

I am reliably informed that Parliamentary timetabling issues mean that even if a change in the law were on the cards, it won't happen any time soon. And the PM has just come out with some "I'm on the side of motorists" headline, so a change in the law is unlikely in the extreme.

My objectives would be:

1.  Immediately cease enforcement.
2.  Reimburse.
3.  Bring this to the attention of Parliament so the next Transport Select Committee orders the CA and Khan to attend.  Similarly, Bus Lane saga.

Yes. The JR (if permission is granted) would be a question of whether the adjudicators were wrong in law (whether their interpretation of the legislation is correct or not). If the adjudicators' interpretation is upheld then the adjudicators would be bound to interpret the legislation as they currently do.

The story is now on Twitter.  Surely, some TV company should pick this up?
