       This is the response he got the registered keeper as he gave the
       driver details and the below response he got.
       Is there anything he needs to do or just wait for debt recovery
       and pass the driver details or appeal on behalf of the driver,
       as mentioned below.
       Thank you.
       Thank you for your online email submission, dated 25.04.2024, in
       respect of the above PCN.
       
       At this stage in the process we are unable to effect a transfer
       of liability on the PCN as we are not in possession of the
       vehicle's registered keeper's details.
       
       An application for the vehicle's registered keeper's details
       will not be made until the unpaid PCN has been passed along to
       our appointed debt collection agency, who then contact the DVLA
       and commence debt recovery action.  It is at this stage that a
       transfer of liability can be requested (within 28 days of the
       first debt recovery letter), although the PCN will have incurred
       additional debt recovery costs.
       
       If you wish to make an appeal against the PCN on behalf of the
       driver, please respond by return of this email - stating your
       reasons for appealing - within the next FIVE days.
       
       We confirm that whilst we are awaiting your response the Parking
       Charge Notice is put on hold at the amount it was at when your
       email was received.
       
       Regards,

       IMO, strictly speaking the PCN Notice to Driver does not meet
       the conditions specified in paras. 7(2)(b) and 7(2)(c) and
       therefore para. 6(1)(a) and thereby para. 4(2)(a) of Schedule 4
       to the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012.
       Consequently, the creditor does not have 'the right to recover
       any unpaid parking charges from the keeper of the vehicle.'.
       The reason for non-compliance of the PCN with mandatory
       requirements is that it does NOT specify the time period for
       payment of the parking charge because it gives two different
       periods. The first, on the front of the PCN, states:
       A PARKING CHARGE IS DUE WITHIN 28 DAYS OF THE ISSUE DATE,
       whereas the first para. on the rear states:
       PAYMENT - the driver of this vehicle must pay the parking charge
       of £100 within a 28-day period, starting on the date of this
       notice.
       'Within 28 days of the issue date' does not carry the same
       meaning as 'within a 28-day period starting on the date of this
       notice'. The former gives an extra day.
       As I understand it, unless stated to the contrary the meaning of
       'within 28 days of X date' excludes that date. I believe there
       is case law to this effect.
       Failure to comply with the above conditions provides grounds for
       the registered keeper to appeal successfully.
       In my opinion.

       Can we please clarify from your previous post exactly what's
       happened so far. I think I know what's happened but it isn't
       entirely clear. Is this the case:
       - The driver received a parking charge notice on the car
       windscreen
       - Rather than deal with this notice themselves, they gave it to
       the Registered Keeper of the vehicle
       - The registered keeper responded to the notice directly,
       apparently providing the name and address of the driver*
       - The keeper received the response outlined in your previous
       post
       *What exactly did the keeper send to PPM? Exact wording if
       possible, not a summary.

       Thank you for your reply.
       This what the registered Keeper sent,
       Now the parking company said need to wait for Debt recovery if
       the fine is not paid, as they need to contact Dvla for
       registered keeper details , but he has already confirmed he is
       the registered keeper and also provided the driver details and
       service address.

       Private Parking Management
       88 Dorset House
       Duke Street.
       Chelmsford,
       Essex,
       CM1 1TB .
       Dear Sir or Madam,
       Parking Charge Notice number: 105780xx
       Vehicle registration number: xxxxxxx
       I am the registered keeper of the above vehicle.
       I am taking this opportunity to notify you of the driver at the
       time of the alleged incident.
       Driver Name: xxxxxx xxxxx
       Serviceable address:
       Xxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxx
       Xxxxxx
       Xxx xxx
       You now have full details of the driver and condition 5 (1) (b)
       of schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 is no
       longer true and the keeper cannot be held liable for the actions
       of the driver.
       There is no time limit to provide this information, bar the
       commencement of legal procedures.
       As there is now no keeper liability I do not expect to hear from
       you or your agents again other than to confirm there will be no
       further action against me on this matter.
       Yours Faithfully

       Oh dear... as this was a windscreen NtD, an appeal should have
       not been made until around day 25 or 26 after the NtD was
       issued. All the keeper had to do was send a generic "no keeper"
       liability appeal in order to tie them up in a period when they
       should be sending out an NtK. Many PPCs in the BPA omit any NTK
       when replying to an appeal and the very fact a PPC forgets to
       send you a NtK by day 56, gives you a winning point at POPLA.
       So, now the driver has been thrown under the bus and will
       probably end up paying when it could easily have been avoided if
       the keeper had just followed the above process.

       Thank you for your reply.
       I did not receive the response for the Forum, so i told him you
       will just need to send this letter template i had and name the
       driver, so the Liability transfer to the Driver not the
       Registered keeper.
       NtD meaning is to Notice to the Driver.
       He was just worried and concern he had to reply within 14 days,
       otherwise he has to pay £100.00, so he wanted to reply to the
       parking firm.
       I never know about the Many PPCs in the BPA omit any NTK when
       replying to an appeal and the very fact a PPC forgets to send
       you a NtK by day 56.
       So now the Driver will be responsible now, not the Registered
       keeper ?
       The below if the DRIVER contest the appeal, can he mentioned the
       below to win the appeal ?
       The reason for non-compliance of the PCN with mandatory
       requirements is that it does NOT specify the time period for
       payment of the parking charge because it gives two different
       periods. The first, on the front of the PCN, states:

       PAYMENT - the driver of this vehicle must pay the parking charge

       'Within 28 days of the issue date' does not carry the same
       meaning as 'within a 28-day period starting on the date of this
       notice'. The former gives an extra day.
       As I understand it, unless stated to the contrary the meaning of

       is case law to this effect.
       Failure to comply with the above conditions provides grounds for
       the registered keeper to appeal successfully.

       The argument about the 28 days and PoFA is gone because the
       drivers identity has been provided to PPM. PPM are now in scam
       mode and have passed this on to their DRA. Whether it is the DRA
       or PPM who apply to the DVLA for the keeper details will matter
       not. They are going to increase the demand to £160 or £170.
       The keeper is going to have to deal with the outcome. I doubt
       they will issue a POPLA code as they are going to say it is
       beyond the appeal date. If so, the keeper can try and get PPM to
       chase the driver but they are still going to try and extort the
       DRA added fee.
       Personally, I would ignore all DRA letters and just wait and see
       if/when they send a Letter of Claim. The only truly independent
       arbiter will be a judge. Perhaps wait and see what the cooler
       heads on the forum suggest.

       Thanks I will await Any further replies from the forum.
       Who is now liable is it the driver or Registered Keeper?
       They have the details of the driver and Registered Keeper.
       Do they still chase the registered keeper, if the driver does
       not pay ?

       Hi Guys
       Registered keeper just messaged me if the driver does not pay or
       does not respond to the letter receive from PPM , is the
       Registered keeper liable, as if he is he rather pay and ask the
       driver you owe me this amount or just leave it as good will to
       avoid any issues with his northern relative.
       Your response or advice will be appreciated.
