Even if an individual feels their fine is not reasonable or proportionate, they can make representations to the issuing agency on receipt of the notice to make their case and give reasons why they feel the notice should not be implemented. There will be statutory guidance, updated very shortly, to emphasise the importance of using these new limits proportionately, including a recommendation that local authorities include wording on this in any service level agreement with the contractors. I hope that those reassurances assist the noble Lord and that he will not, in due course, press those amendments.
