Decision details
Decision Maker: Corporate Director (Operational Services)
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
Debt collection for unpaid PCN's is an
essential component of operating decriminalised parking enforcement
under the TMA 2004. Debt collection services produce different
results in terms of % collection and have slightly different
business practices within the constraints of their professional
code of conduct and the law. It is prudent to periodically seek
quotation for services under competition.
Decision:
To appoint Marston (Holdings) Ltd as the debt
collection service for unpaid PCN's issued under the Traffic
Management Act 2004 by Tendring District Council
Alternative options considered:
Option 1 - The only alternative is to not
appoint and risk increasing financial burden on the Council.
