Thanks , done.
Suggest you all read this before finalising plans. http://forums.pepipoo.com/index.php?showtopic=72105&pid=720951&st=0&#entry720951I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0 -
On putting "BPA" and "keeper liability" into Google I stumbled upon this interesting document from London Councils:
http://www.londoncouncils.gov.uk/London%20Councils/Item20.POPLAReport140612.doc
As this document appears to be publicly available under the Web, following a simple search, and there appears to be no claim of confidentiality attached or any attempt made to secure it, I am naturally assuming that is a public domain document.
Anyway it is an interesting read. Apparently they are expecting only 1% to appeal!!! 1%!!! I think they may have to revise that upwards a bit to say the least.0 -

So now Local Government officials, as well as the MoJ, DfT and DVLA, have all failed to notice the extremely large elephant in the room.
You can only "appeal" against something that is lawful in the first place.
I have been providing assistance, including Lay Representation at Court hearings (current score: won 57, lost 14), to defendants in parking cases for over 5 years. I have an LLB (Hons) degree, and have a Graduate Diploma in Civil Litigation from CILEx. However, any advice given on these forums by me is NOT formal legal advice, and I accept no liability for its accuracy.0 -
From that document -Equalities Implications for London Councils
There are no equalities implications
Oh boy - I don't think they've thought this through!
Another thought - once this strange beast is up and running will they obliged to respond to FOI requests, being a de facto public authority?0
