  • Calderdale Metropolitan Borough Council (24 012 335)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Parking and other penalties 19-Dec-2024

    Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s handling of two penalty charge notices. This is because the penalty charge notices carried a right of appeal and it would have been reasonable for Mr X to apply to the Traffic Enforcement Centre to reinstate his right of appeal. There is not enough evidence of fault by the Council affecting Mr X’s right of appeal and the Council’s agreement to accept payment at the discounted rate of £70 per penalty charge notice provides a suitable remedy for the complaint. It is therefore unlikely investigation would achieve anything more for Mr X.

This provides a suitable remedy for the complaint and it is unlikely further investigation would achieve anything more.
