You asked
Hello,
Would it be possible to share the total number of PCNs issued by TfL on Saturday 9 December? Could the number of PCNs issued that day between 12pm and 1pm also be shared?
Additionally, I'd like to request the same two sets of data for Saturday 2 December and Saturday 16 December.

When a vehicle is driven in the Congestion Charging zone during charging hours it is usually observed by a number of cameras throughout the journey. If no charge is paid, the clearest image of the vehicle is retained for the purpose of issuing a PCN. Therefore, while the table details the number of PCNs issued when the vehicle was observed between 12 & 1pm this in no way indicates when the vehicle entered or left the zone or for how long it was driven within the zone.
If you are not satisfied with this response please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.
Yours sincerely,
Tahsin Prima FOI Case Officer General Counsel Transport for London
