PCN in Scotland

Did they really use the word offence?From the Plain Language Commission:
"The BPA has surely become one of the most socially dangerous organisations in the UK"0 -
Thankyou
To be specific, what if the car park is in Scotland and the residency of the keeper is in England?
.... or vice versa?
(The car park being run by a company based in England!)
Does POFA 2012 apply?0 -
This has already been asked. If either is in Scotland (car park or keeper) then an "out of jurisdiction" claim would need to be made. POFA (hence POPLA or IAS) would not apply. (That does not mean that the PPC can't still get keeper details).0

Thanks, Bod.
Appreciate it.
Couldn`t find it elsewhere on the forum.0 -
I am curious to know if Simon_killie1 had alleged entry and exit times that were exactly a whole number of hours (down to a few seconds, even) as this would be statistically unlikely to be true.0

Just noticed that Bod 1467 states:
(That does not mean that the PPC can't still get keeper details).
I must have misunderstood something.
I thought it was POFA 2012 that gave the company the right to obtain RK details from DVLA. If POFA is not applicable, would they not be obtaining the RK details under false pretence and perhaps breaching the Data Protections Act to obtain such details
I was considering contacting the (Scottish) )shopping centre customer services to complain (as keeper) along these lines.0 -
POFA doesn't apply in Scotland anyway.
The PPC will use the "reasonable cause" excuse. And even if they don't, DVLA will use it for them. :doh:0 -
Nope they've had that right for about a decade, under the 'reasonable cause' excuse.Zaphod_Beeblebrox wrote: »Just noticed that Bod 1467 states:
