    You could ask who the alleged independent adjudicator is, since this is a requirement of the alternative dispute regulations 2015. 
    I'm happy to do that but not sure that I understand how that helps me?

    In today's interview on BBC Breakfast, Will told us that the new rule comes in from 17th February and that anyone can appeal to IAS back to 1st January.  Someone needs to tell the IAS ;)

    I already sent a FOI to the CTSI about that.  It's in my WhatDoTheyKnow Results.

    The CTSI washed their hands of it and said they don't require adjudicators to be named and nor do they insist that an ADR declare in Annual Reports, the stats about successful disputes.

    You could not make it up!

    The IAS / IPC are simply not fit for purpose. 
    When you look at how it was set up, which was exposed,  GOVERNMENT MUST BAN THE IAS / IPC

    New Joint Code version dated today, has added an extra 'Exempt vehicles clause' to F1:

    https://www.britishparking.co.uk/write/Documents/AOS/Sector Code Templates/sectorsingleCodeofPracticeVersion1.1130225.pdf

    "
    The Panel has created a new category of Exempt Vehicle in Annex F.1. The category relates to vehicles parked on land managed by fixed camera technology. This change puts in place protection to ensure that where a genuine user is unable to make prompt payment when entering a pay on entry car park they do not receive a parking charge."

    F.1. j) a vehicle parked in a car park managed by fixed camera technology (ANPR and/or CCTV) for which payment has been made for the full period of parking prior to the vehicle leaving the car park. NOTE: This exempt circumstance only relates to the timing of making payment. It does not exempt a motorist from parking charges which have been issued for other contraventions such as; · Partial or under payment for the time parked, · Where the driver has paid the tariff but made a major keying error when registering their vehicle, · Parking in a bay where the vehicle was not permitted to park (this list is not exhaustive)

    MSE article today is quite good and balanced IMHO ... must admit I had a chat with the MSE journalist first!
