Barnet Council - losing track of time.

An interesting and worrying decision yesterday at the tribunal (Mr Mustard looks at random results when he has the time).

Hats off to J A Rattigan


It might have only been the one camera or it could have been all of them but this alleged contravention was a week after the clocks went forward so every single PCN had the wrong time on it and can be beaten. An honest council would go back and unilaterally cancel them all, and issue refunds, but somehow Mr Mustard doubts that will happen. This is why we need an ombudsman or similar who could direct an enforcement authority to behave morally and legally. There is no current mechanism to deal with this sort of error, it is up to each person and not everyone has Mr Mustard's willingness to fight petty officialdom.

End.
