       I am the registered keeper of the vehicle. The driver parked in
       the bay possibly without realising it was a paid parking bay
       only and not a permit holders bay aswell. As the car has a tower
       Hamlets permit to park in that area.
       Can you offer any advise on a possible appeal and whether any
       more info is required.
       Thanks.

       So one assumes the driver didn't go and read the sign. If you
       were the driver, you can tell us because the driver has no role
       in the enforcement process, it is all down to the registered
       keeper.
       Basically, if one parks in a marked-out bay, one has a duty to
       look for the sign controlling that bay. So at the moment, I see
       no winning appeal argument, but you could try submitting a
       non-confrontational representation saying that your driver
       thought the TH permit allowed parking in any bay in Tower
       Hamlets. Put in "awfully sorry, wont happen again" etc
       Having said the above, there may be a 'technical' appeal based
       on TH mismanagement of the enforcement process. Such appeals
       usually have nothing to do with the contravention itself.
       Councils have duties as well as the poor motorist and if they
       fail to follow the enforcement Acts and regulations the PCN is
       usually void.
       Our expert on these are 'Hippocrates' so wait a bit to see if
       he has anything to suggest. On the contravention itself, you
       look bang-to-rights.
