Our ref: FOI-0798-1920/GH
Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 18 June 2019 asking for further information about Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs).
Your request has been considered under the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and our information access policy. I can confirm that we do hold some of the information you require.
- Revenue £ from Box Junction PCN for each borough for 2018 and 2019 only
We do not hold this information. We do not record which borough a PCN was issued in.
- What guidelines / law exist to instruct how the money generated from a Box Junction PCN must be used for?
There are no such guidelines or law. All net revenue generated has been reinvested straight into ongoing investment in the capital’s transport infrastructure, which helps to promote more sustainable travel and helps to clean London’s air.
- It says may charge in your answer - where is the discretion guidelines?
We cannot see this in our previous answer, and do not know what you are referring to. Please could you clarify?
4) Are Councils and TFL bound by the GDPR Principles to process personal data relating to owners and their vehicles fairly, accurately , lawfully, for its intended purposes?
Yes, the GDPR applies to TfL and we fully operate within the guidelines.
5) How does TFL ensure Principle D) i.e fairly being checked for compliance when issuing a ticket?
Principle d is: Personal data shall be ‘accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that are inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, are erased or rectified without delay’. However it is unclear what recorded information you are seeking in response to this question. Please could you clarify?
If you are not satisfied with this response please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.
Yours sincerely
