       Nope.  This:
       The only possible issue is the TWOC ground which limits to
       theft.
       I  bring a collateral challenge on the basis that the PCN is
       unenforceable because the taken without consent ground clearly
       fetters to theft by its very wording that a crime report be
       provided. Therefore, this inaccurate reflection of the statutory
       ground does not take into account that a relative, or friend,
       may have taken the vehicle without the owner's permission so
       that the owner would not necessarily, if at all, report the
       matter to the Police in such circumstances.

       Thank you.
       Not entirely sure if I understand - but I'll leave off what I've
       written then and add this paragraph and send it. Thank you

       Rubbish response re TWOC!
       I say tribunal time and I am more than happy to represent.
       ETA Register of Appeals
       Register kept under Regulation 20 of the Road Traffic (Parking
       Adjudicators) (London) Regulations 1993, as amended and
       Regulation 17 of the Civil Enforcement of Road Traffic
       Contraventions (Representations and Appeals) (England)
       Regulations 2022.
       Case Details
       Case reference 2110212199
       Appellant Chidi Egenti
       Authority London Borough of Islington
       VRM EA02WFR
       PCN Details
       PCN IS2284987A
       Contravention date 12 Feb 2011
       Contravention time 12:06:00
       Contravention location Drayton Park/Horsell Road N5
       Penalty amount GBP 120.00
       Contravention Entering and stopping in a box junction
       Referral date
       Decision Date 07 Jul 2011
       Adjudicator Teresa Brennan
       Appeal decision Appeal allowed
       Direction cancel the Penalty Charge Notice.
       Reasons Mr Egenti appeals and raises a number of issues both in
       his initial representations and in the Notice of Appeal.
       One of the issues that Mr Egenti raised was wither the Penalty
       Charge Notice was enforceable as he states that the third ground
       of appeal, box C on the Penalty Charge Notice inaccurately
       reflects the statutory ground. Further he says that by stating
       that the insurance claim or crime report be provided that this
       fetters the basis on which a representation on this basis can be
       made. In his initial representations Mr Egenti specifically
       raised the issue of circumstances in which a relative might have
       taken the keys to the car without his consent.
       In the Notice of Rejection issued on 30th March 2011 the local
       authority stated: 'If relative takes the car without permission
       the registered keeper of the vehicle is still liable for the
       charge unless they report the matter to the police' Whilst it
       may be that a local authority would not accept a representation
       made on this basis without a crime report there is no obligation
       on a registered keeper to provide a crime report and it is
       incorrect in law to state that a registered keeper must provide
       a crime report when relying on this ground of appeal. I find
       that the Notice of Rejection wrongly states the law and that it
       is therefore misleading.
       The London Local Authorities Act 2003 imposes a duty on an
       enforcement authority to consider representations made and to
       then serve a notice indicating the decision that has been made.
       In this case I find that the London Borough of Islington has
       failed to properly consider the representations because the
       Notice of Rejection inaccurately states the law. As this could
       have misled the appellant into not putting forward a particular
       basis of appeal I find that the local authority failed in its
       duty to consider the representations. Therefore I find that the
       local authority cannot enforce this Penalty Charge Notice and I
       allow this appeal.

       The 14 Days for the £65 ends on the 1st February (I think)
       It looks like the appeal to the adjudicator needs to go in 28
       days from the date of the letter.
       [member=24]Hippocrates[/member] - if you are happy to represent
       me at the tribunal and believe that I can win, then I'm happy to
       go with that.
       Shall I fill out the application for the tribunal?
