As Grandad says, para 5.1 needs adjustment.
Just changing the word Defendant to driver should do it.0 -
My understanding is 'grace period' applies when you have permission to park for x number of hours, and you exceed that period by a certain time. Consideration period is right when you enter private land, look at the signs and decide whether to stay there or not. Here is the relevant section of IPC's CoP:13.1 Motorists must be allowed a sufficient Consideration Period so they may make
an informed decision as to whether or not to enter or remain on the Private Land.
If a Motorist chooses to reject the opportunity by entering or remaining on the
Private Land without reading terms and conditions, they may be deemed to have
accepted them immediately.
13.2 Before a Parking Charge is issued Motorists must be allowed a Grace Period
save and except when 13.3 is applicable. A Grace Period is a 10 minute period at
the end of a Permitted Period of Parking.
13.3 A Grace Period is not required when the Permitted Period of Parking does not
exceed 1 hour providing that the signage on the site makes it clear to the Motorist,
in a prominent font, that no Grace Period applies on that land.0 -
If any of the experts can confirm - I was going by the CoP in force at the time of the parking event i.e. 12/2018 v6.
The OP is quoting from the latest v7 dated 11/20191 -
I agree, only the relevant CoP at the time of the parking event applies.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Update on this case. My court date (online on Skype) was set for 31 July. A week before got a letter from Gladstones saying they want to discontinue this claim, and that's that.6
