(8) A fixed penalty notice may specify that if £30 is paid before the end of the period of 14 days following the date of the notice, that is the amount of the fixed penalty.
(9) If the person to whom a fixed penalty notice is given has already received a fixed penalty notice under these Regulations or Regulations mentioned in paragraph (10)—

(11) Whatever other method may be specified under paragraph (6)(e), payment of a fixed penalty may be made by pre-paying and posting to the person whose name is stated under paragraph (6)(d), at the stated address, a letter containing the amount of the penalty (in cash or otherwise).
(12) Where a letter is sent as mentioned in paragraph (11), payment is regarded as having been made at the time at which that letter would be delivered in the ordinary course of post.

(a)that purports to be signed by or on behalf of the person with responsibility for the financial affairs of—
(i)the local authority, or
(ii)the person designated under paragraph (2)(b),
specified in the fixed penalty notice to which the proceedings relate, and
(b)which states that the payment of a fixed penalty was, or was not, received by the date specified in the certificate,
is evidence of the facts stated.
