Commentary on Sections Part 5: Supplementary Section 64: Fixed penalty: service of notice
Sections 64 to 66 provide for fixed penalty notices to be issued, instead of criminal proceedings.  Section 64 allows an authorised officer of the council, who has reason to believe that an offence has been committed, to serve a fixed penalty notice.  The notice must set out the offence which is alleged to have been committed, and state the amount of the fixed penalty.
