And so it ends - Bristol Airport IAS Appeal success

I think that we know the way that this claim will go but it would be interesting if Excel/VCS could get a slap on the wrist for an infringement of data protection. 

Glad to hear that your relative's MP is on the case. I wish my MP would take over the implementation of the new CoP from Robert Jenrick.

Patience...the MHCLG seem keen to get it right and as we all know from the BPA’s Parking News, were/are under threat of yet more delay if the PPCs get a Judicial Review so this has to be done properly.

Robert Jenrick didn't reply when I asked him a question about last year's parking consultation.

My relative has thanked his (Labour) MP and the caseworker for having the decency to respond, as well as trying to help. He also told his MP about Mr Jenrick's behaviour with regards to my attempt to contact him. 

Right, enough about me and mine. I have enough information to keep me going for the time being so I suggest we get back to helping others who may be less well informed.

Thank you all and one.

Robert Jenrick did not reply to me and probably many others.

I think this is a catching problem from Boris

The agreement to data sharing between group companies is an interesting one, especially if consent has not been obtained in the first place (which it clearly wouldn't be).

Here's another one to ponder. Here's a copy of signage from a car park run by Napier (my own case running atm):





Note the reference to to the privacy notice on their website. Following that link brings about a 12 page document with 4,004 words - try reading that (on a mobile phone!) and understanding it during any grace period where you are deciding to park or not.
Average reading speed per adult is 200-250 wpm - so up to 20 minutes just to read their privacy notice which is part of their T&C's - already way past any grace period allowed!

Time to consider a supplement to my WS maybe.

You are so right.  Trouble with the codes of practice, it does not teach these PPC's how not to be stupid

As if a motorist would stop and connect to the internet ......Guarantee a Judge would not.

Is that sign for the hedgehogs?  If you position a sign 2" above the ground, you're not expecting it to be read...

Here's the full version - try reading that, along with 4,004 words of a privacy notice - all within the grace period - not possible:

Just received a bathtub full of whitewash from the DVLA Kadoe team. Imagine my surprise.

While seeking to ensure that vehicle keeper data is released only in appropriate circumstances, it is not a matter for the Agency to decide on the merits of individual cases or to arbitrate in any civil disputes between motorists and private car park enforcement companies. The DVLA cannot regulate any aspect of a company’s business. Any representations should be made to the landowner or his agent. The DVLA releases information on the basis that reasonable cause is demonstrated.
However, I have been in correspondence with VCS Ltd to review the evidence and DVLA are satisfied that reasonable cause has been met to make the electronic enquiry.


I provided proof that the alleged event occurred outside the area where VCS have a contract to operate, that there were no signs, and that the area was not a No Stopping zone, but, hey, "the DVLA are satisfied that reasonable cause has been met ..."

That's one for my relative's MP. We are also going to have a pop at the DVLA's complaints procedure once I have checked which parts of the KADOE contract I believe has been breached.

DVLA must have a very big carpet and bigger brush that seems to be a standard letter with just ppc names altered as we received the same
