Yep, but ANPR Ltd. is rarely encountered outside of the frozen north.Je suis Charlie.0

I guess they saw the legal s***storm that could be coming their way. In fact, it still could as they would still have some responsibility for ANPR's actions during its tenure, depending of the nature of Trev's misdeeds.0

every little helps!!!
took some doing , single handedly , I had actually used all my spare gmail addresses up!
all correspondence from the DVLA and the CSA , was sent to PCC , along with blunt requests on "what do they know" followed up by request of action to the local government ombudsman , after they refused to answer ,
I urge everybody to contact the owners of car parks he operates on!!0 -
It can be done, not just with ANPR Ltd. I got PE thrown out of a local Aldi when I showed the council they were operating in breach of the store's planning conditions.Je suis Charlie.0

Yes, vicarious liability and all that, but it would need someone who has paid Trev to sue, and such people are by definition not the sharpest knife in the block.Je suis Charlie.0 -

I tried that and had the support of the local council. What did Aldi / PE do ? Appeal to the Planning Inspectorate who upheld the new conditions they were demanding from the council. :mad:

I suspect in your case it was an actual planning condition, whereas in my case they were breaching a Section 106 agreement, which is effectively a contract between the applicant and the council.
In theory S106 agreements can be re-negotiated after a certain period, and the landowner can appeal to the planning inspectorate if they don't get what they want from the re-negotiation, but for some reason such appeals hardly ever happen.Je suis Charlie.0 -
