Parking fine

I pay council Non Domestic Rates and parking fees to park in an area not far from work. My daughter borrowed my car to take her children into town while I was on holiday, she knew I had a parking space there and decided to park in my spot unaware she should display my parking ticket.
So i recieved the fine a couple of weeks after I came back from holiday. Should I be liable for this cost as in total I pay £600 per year to park there? I have appealled but they say it must be paid.

    Since we specialise in dealing with the unregulated private parking industry on this forum, you would be better taking this over to our friends on the FTLA forum as they are the police and council motoring experts.

    Who issued the PCN?
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
