You need to read the NEWBIES THREAD section (here on the parking tickets board) about CCJs and how to set them aside.
And answer Umkomaas' questions, please.AND PLEASE CHANNEL YOUR ANGER ABOUT THIS HORRIFIC, SECRET CCJ, TO CHANGE THE WAY THE PARKING INDUSTRY WORK. CALLING ALL NEWBIES!
An urgent task – deadline approaching in a week or so:
Please now make a real difference because not enough people have yet, and time is running out.
The Government is consulting for just a few more days, about a new statutory code of practice (CoP) and framework intended to rein in the rogue parking firms.Does it go far enough? Read and comment on the draft CoP proposal and the enforcement framework consultation (two separate consultation documents).
HOW TO DO THE SUBMISSIONS:
BSI PAS 232 – COMMENTING ON THE CODE OF PRACTICE AS DRAFTED:
1. You will need to register then log in, to comment on the CoP and enter an occupation even if you are retired or a homemaker.
2. Register, log into the BSI page, and download & read the cover letter here:
https://standardsdevelopment.bsigroup.com/projects/2020-00193#/section
3. Read the cover letter again and note the suggested extra questions... if you agree that, say, the 'loading/unloading and dropping off, asking for directions, and disabled people parking on double yellows as they can on street' activities listed should be exempt (not parking events, what do you think?) then please go to the Annexes at the end of the PAS Code and find the one about Exempt Vehicles and state what other activity you think should be added to the exempt list.
4. Download the PAS itself and start commenting on what you wish to say something about. Quick links to each section appear on the left of your page.
You don’t have to comment on everything, e.g. you might want to skip the definitions and focus on later sections, and certainly look at the Annex tables at the end that show things like consideration & grace periods and exemptions.
5. Submit comments when you are happy with them. Don’t just ‘SAVE’ and forget!
THAT IS HALF THE JOB DONE!
THE MHCLG CONSULTATION IS EASIER AS IT IS JUST A LIST OF QUESTIONS.
6. You can do it first if preferred or pushed for time:
If your answers exceed 4000 characters (approx. 500 words to a single question or 16000 words (approx. 2500 words) for all the questions below, you can email your answers to parking@communities.gov.uk as long as you state who you are.
