If you don't deal with your fine

When an Infringement Notice is issued by an enforcement agency, you must pay it by the due date or do something about it.

If you do not pay it or do something about it, a Penalty Reminder Notice is issued for the fine. The cost of the fine will go up. You should pay the fine or contact the agency that issued the fine to talk about your options. Their contact number is on the notice you received.

If you still don't do anything about the fine, a Notice of Final Demand is issued and the cost of the fine goes up again. You should pay this fine by the due date or contact us to discuss further.

If you don't do anything, an Enforcement Warrant may be issued, and the Sheriff may get involved.
