    You're
     probably right, but I couldn't see any harm in it.
    The 'harm' is that you have restricted yourself by being unable to mention that letter in court except when the issue of costs is being discussed.

    The harm (if you can call it that) is that you cannot use it in your hearing, except when it comes to costs.
    It doesn't contain any information that wouldn't be included in my defence, and the letter in an of itself would have little bearing on any judgement, as far as I can see.

    I am just saying that by using those words you have placed an extra restriction upon yourself.
    My original question was why would you want to place that restriction upon yourself. 
    That's all.

    I see, more of a psychological thing than anything else. Let them know that I'm ready to go to court, that I expect to win, and I expect to be awarded costs.

    Hopefully they will s*** or get off the pot.

    Just a thought, but in processing the keepers personal data and by handing it over to a debt collection company, when they know full well that the keeper has no liability for the PCN, has the PPC breached the DPA/Gdpr?

    One to put to the ICO. They are very helpful apparently. 
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    I will be testing this very point in front of a judge.
