Section 75: Power to require authority to apply for civil enforcement powers
204.Section 75 confers on the appropriate national authority a power to give notice to a local authority outside Greater London requiring the authority to apply under paragraph 8 of Schedule 8 for designation of the whole or part of its area as a civil enforcement area for parking contraventions. Such a notice must be preceded by a notification to the authority and the appropriate chief officer of police that the giving of such a notice is being contemplated to enable them to make representations to the national authority. The national authority must take such representations into account in deciding whether to give a notice to apply. The terms of a notice to apply may subsequently be modified by agreement between the national authority and the local authority.
