    Does that have an impact on my appeal though? If they are delayed I just have to wait for their response to be sent?

    If you read the POPLA website, it explains it there.

    You can put in a holding (short) appeal if you wish. 

    I told you what to include in my last reply, and that's in addtion to the usual templates in post #3 of there NEWBIES thread.  There is no searching needed.  Show us the draft you come up with using the usual templates plus my suggestion, and make sure you embed photos of the sign forbidding Co-op customers to park, and not any other photo.  

    I am astonished anyone would drive in there though, and decide that it is OK.  Why park in a private car park, it's clearly not the Co-op one.  And you picked a noasty, litigious parking firm. 

    Always read car park signs in future, and just make it a rule that you will not use a private residents' car park to go to a different place.

    Thanks. I was going to look for an appeal from 2017 onwards as suggested.
    I'll start drafting my appeal.

    Hi All, 
    Just a quick question.  Is the minimum grace period now minimum of 5 mins (previously it was 10 mins)? Does that make some of the points from the POPLA appeal template re: 1) Consideration and Grace Periods: BPA Code of Practice–non-compliance null and void?

    Thanks

    The latest Hansard from yesterday's debate suggests a 10-minute grace period to be pretty well fixed in MPs' minds. Could be quoted to a Judge if the PPC is arguing (the impossible) 5 minutes that the BPA shamefully changed in their Code of Practice to meet the demands of their PPC members.

    The MPs are deluded if they think a MORE THAN 10 min grace period didn't exist before!

    5 or even 10 mins isn't anything like enough for ANPR car parks, because it isn't the same as Council ones and is inherently unfair to include the driving in/out time in the ten minutes.
