Welsh language: Driver wins case over English-only parking fine
A parking firm has lost a civil case against a motorist over an unpaid £160 fine after she requested The Details in Welsh rather than just in English.
A judge ruled against Simple Intelligent Parking Ltd, which had not provided information bilingually.
Elysteg Llwyd Thomas from Dyffryn Nantlle, Gwynedd, had been sent details of an initial £60 fine in English.
The Firm told that it was disappointed and intended to appeal against the decision.
Ms Thomas sent a reply to say that she would be ready to pay once The Company sent all correspondence bilingually, including a copy of the fine, following a stay at Lligwy beach, near Moelfre, Anglesey, in August 2021.
Her request was ignored and she was informed that The Penalty had increased to £100, which was later raised again to £160.
Ms Thomas was represented in the civil case in Caernarfon by her father, Eifion Lloyd Jones , a member of Welsh Language campaign group Dyfodol i'r Iaith.
Judge Merfyn Jones-Evans rejected the parking company's application and issued a judicial warning that all signs in car parks in Wales should be bilingual.

Simple Intelligent Parking Ltd said: " We Are waiting for the written judgment so that we can take the appropriate steps.
" However, we anticipate that we will appeal against the decision as it is wrong according to The Law . "
