Being in a bus lane during the hours of operation - Empire Way

Hi
I hope all is well with you all.
Please find below the PCN pages:
HTML https://ibb.co/dwTxBtFx
HTML https://ibb.co/9kD6gZHF
With my limited knowledge, the PCN does not say what happens if
the PCN is not paid or Representations not made, in terms of the
Charge Certificate or the charge will be increased by 50% to
£240. I learnt this from [member=24]Hippocrates[/member].
Second observation, they make references to “Enforcement Notice”
(EN). Is that equivalent to Notice to Owner? If so, why do they
use it? The PCN was issued using CCTV camera and it was posted
to the correct address. My understanding is that usually they
issue NtO if initially the PCN is manually attached to the
vehicle by a traffic warden, then NtO is to follow. Please can
you explain the purpose of the EN.
Also, the photographic evidence provided by the PCN does not
show any signs displaying the hours of operation (restriction
times) to which the contravention is alleged. They used a CCTV
facing the car rather than from the back of the car. Is that
permissible?
Sorry for the short notice. I think I have three days left
before the expiry of the 50% discount period.
As always, thank you in anticipation.

Leave this one to me and I'll be back later. The PCN should not
state they WILL send an Enforcement Notice. In this legislation
they MUST attend the hearing or their evidence is inadmissible.
PM me re the other offer.

They are not obliged to entertain an informal challenge in this
legislation. However, we may as well put something in. We have
time. 4th September.
