Does New Law (May 2012) Make Registered Keeper Liable to Parking Charges?

Yes but we can expect a spate of PPC's trying there luck again in court, and having to go over the same old ground that makes it unenforceable.**** I hereby relieve MSE of all legal responsibility for my post and assume personal responsible for all posts.

A swift change of contract with the landowner, and remembering to add the vat?0

Its not that simple. The landowner would have to grant them significant rights to the land, something which any sensible organization ought to be reluctant to do - certainly if they consulted their own lawyers over such a contract I suspect the advice would be to not agree to such terms.
I guess it remains to be seen if anyone actually goes ahead with such terms though.Je Suis Cecil.0 -
A lot more devious lawyers than us will be on either side. I don't think it will prove difficult.0

We'll have to disagree on that.
I think it will be a major barrier. Remember its not necessarily the Supermarkets or retail park management companies, we're talking the landowner. I seriously doubt they will want to sign a document relinquishing certain rights over their land over to some dodgy parking company.Je Suis Cecil.0 -

I agree. But it wont stop the PPC's getting new contracts (still inadequate) and trying the hands in court again, despite the fact nothing basically has changed.**** I hereby relieve MSE of all legal responsibility for my post and assume personal responsible for all posts.

If I was the landowner, I'd buy the parking company.0 -
If I was a landowner, I would know not to use a parking company issuing fake tickets...PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Historically, landowners weren't the nicest of people. That's how they came to be the rich landowners. I doubt parkig companies will simply decide to retire overnight either.0
