       Please do this online using the webcode and enter the PCN and
       VRM details:
       Dear Havering Council
       I make the following representations against the PCN
       1. The PCN is unenforceable because the sentence under
       Enforcement Notice on the PCN wrongly states the period in which
       to pay and make representations  The Law states this @
  HTML https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukla/1996/9/section/4/enacted
       (3)A penalty charge notice under this Part of this Act must
       state—
       (c)that the penalty charge must be paid before the end of the
       period of 28 days beginning with the date of the notice;
       (e)that, if the penalty charge is not paid before the end of the
       28 day period, an enforcement notice may be served by the
       council on the person appearing to them to be the owner of the
       vehicle;
       Therefore, the references to date of service in the following
       sentence is not only wrong but also creates an ambiguity:  If
       after the last day of the period of 28 days beginning with the
       date on which this PCN is served no such representations have
       been made, and the penalty charge has not been paid, an
       Enforcement Notice may be served.....
       2. Furthermore, the payment option on the PCN does not state the
       address to which payment may be made:
       (f)the address to which payment of the penalty charge must be
       sent;
       3. 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 or, indeed, make an
       insurance claim.
       4. I put you to strict proof that the camera at the location has
       the correct VCA certificate to satisfy the criterion of
       admissibility of evidence as provided at para. 7(2) Schedule 1
       of The London Local Authorities Act 1996 (as amended). If this
       is not possible, it follows that the evidence is inadmissible.
       5. The video footage does not show any bus lane signage i.e. 958
       and/or 959B allegedly passed.
       In light of the above, please cancel the said  PCN.
