I would say definitely contact the land owners! Napier are their agent (the land owner is the principal), so land owner is jointly liable for any law breaches because their agent are doing the work for them.

C-M, Guys Dad, Umkomaas: anything you can add?

Yes unless the landowner is the connected firm to Napier (as discussed in the pepipoo thread). De Savary I think? Same rich family, so forget it if so.

If GPEOL may be tricky have you got the exact wording of the blue badge free parking on the sign?

If there is the slightest ambiguity we can work on that.

Just be completely sure of this before you proceed. There are some car parks that they have leases on such as Jengers Mead, Billingshurst and Olney Market Place (there are others - one in Stamford I seem to recall) but in the other cases Napier Parking is contracted by the landowners - often another company that is owned by the same family - the de Savary's. This is not comparable to the more common Asda contracts Joe Soap Parking situation.

Is it safe to put the name of the landowner on here or should I PM one of you?

If it's not de Savary then post it here.

Thear Park is owned by St George Central London Limited. St George Central London Limited has entered into a contract with Napier whereby all rights and obligations concerning the management and administration of the parking services at the Car Park are assigned to them.

Interesting. If the wording is correct then it is Napier themselves that must make "reasonable adjustment" they are obliged to comply with the Equality Act.

How is this for an appeal letter to the PPC? Not my own work BTW.

Dear xxx
In regards to the invoice received with ref number xxxxxx dated xxxxxx, the keeper denies all liability to your company. Enclosed is a copy of a blue badge that confirms the vehicle had a disabled person on board. If you reject this challenge the keeper requires within 35 days a POPLA verification code for them to appeal independently, per Version 2 of the BPA Code of Practice.

The keeper has nothing further to add, and will not respond to any correspondence from your company unless it contains the POPLA code.
The challenge will be deemed accepted if there is no POPLA code on any rejection that you supply within the time-frame stipulated above.

Yours Faithfully
