Appendix A – Consultation questions

Question 1: Do you agree or disagree that the current maximum levels for PCNs, currently set at £80 & £100 (reducing by 50% if paid within 14 days) are appropriate?

Question 2: Which of the following four options would be your preferred choice:

1. the current level of £100 (reducing to £50 if paid within 14 days);
2. £120 (reducing to £60 if paid within 14 days);
3. at a (potentially different) level set independently by each local authority; or
4. something else, please provide an explanation.

Question 3: Option C for question 2 would mean removing current Scottish Ministers guidance on maximum PCN levels, leaving each local authority to set their own maximum levels independently. Do you anticipate any positive or negative effects should option C be implemented?
