Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I received a pcn today for "02 Parked or loading unloading in a restricted street where waiting loading unloading restrictions are in force"
Here's the PCN (front and back):
[removed]
I had stopped for 58 seconds to look around. I wasn't loading or unloading or parked. I was merely stationary. I didn't notice any signs prohibiting waiting. I was on a single yellow line. I can't tell from the photos where in Kennington Lane I was and so it will be difficult for me to locate the spot where I was in order to go back and check on signage.
Is it possible to appeal on the basis that the camera operative wasn't registered with the SIA and therefore should not have been operating the CCTV ? I've heard people say appeal on those grounds but that advise sounds somewhat dodgy.
Do I have a leg to stand on, or do I have to pay the £60

I am not aware of any requirement for an SIA licence requirement for enforcement of TMA2004 and how would you know whether or not he/she has such a licence anyway?

Tick box 3 is bollox, permitted to remain in a place without consent, supply crime reports or insurance claim.
Utter crap. Doesnt havbe to be stolen to be taken without consent.
fettered right of appeal.
You are correct that a demand for crime report or insurance claim alone would fetter the grounds of appeal.
However, in this case, the simple addition of the letters eg (exempli gratia) removes such fettering as the instances given are only examples and not exclusive.
Other councils are less correct in this respect than Lambeth. In fact, I can see nothing wrong with the pcn.

yes the LA can argue that they are examples by the insertion of the letters eg, however as been said before thay are only giving examples of one of the possibilities, to the untrained it can be sufficiently missleading.
Challenge it on 1. the alleged contravention did not occur on the grounds that you were not parked, and ask for a definition of 'parking' (unless G&M can give us one). You are clearly still on the bike. If you had a smut in your eye, for example (e.g.) you would have to stop.
These CCTV tickets are a menace.
