| Making a claim that this is to plug a funding gap verges on the ridiculous. Since there’s no guarantee that it will raise even £1, it’s not a reliable income stream. Quite why Hounslow think it’s an acceptable strategy is beyond most rational people. Hilariously, Cllr Grewal claimed these wouldn’t be fines. Maybe he thinks they are ‘charitable donations’ instead, such as those paid by his colleagues for their vehicular transgressions. If the intention is to improve road safety and driving standards the ultimate result would be zero fines. He also doesn’t understand that PCN revenues such as these are ring fenced for transport spending, so can’t be used to cover things like social care, for example. |
