IN a letter from Mr Waring of Atherton, he stated he had been given a parking ticket when he parked at the Market Place, Bolton.

Mr Waring, in fact, got his ticket when he parked outside the Market. Mr Darren Butler, operations manager for APCOA offstreet division, explained that enforcement officers working on behalf of the council did not operate at the multi storey Market Place car park, which has a pay as you leave ticket system.
