I would like to ask how many traffic-related (both parking and moving traffic) Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) have been overturned/refunded by your body each year for the last five. For 2024, I would appreciate data to the end of the year. I would like to ask how many of the informal appeals have been accepted, with PCNs cancelled and refunded as a result, rather than how many have been formally appealed.
This information can be found below:
2024-25 | 2023-24 | 2022-23 | 2021-22 | 2020-21 | |
Total volume of PCNs issued | 65500 | 47196 | 71979 | 61192 | 45560 |
Volume of informal challenges which resulted in cancellation of the PCN | 3307 | 2466 | 4005 | 3412 | 3469 |
Volume of informal challenges which resulted in rejection of the challenge. | 5090 | 3779 | 6202 | 5389 | 4168 |
Please note, there will be no refund figure, as it is not possible to pay and then submit an appeal. If an informal challenge is accepted by the Council, then no payment is received to be refunded.
