235DC: Reminder notices

You could also call this:

“A reminder notice tells you again about a fine you got and must look just like the first notice.”

If you get an infringement notice, you might also receive a reminder notice later. This reminder notice must follow a specific format that is set by rules. These rules are found in another part of the law called section 237.

The reminder notice will contain the same or very similar information as the original infringement notice you received. This is to make sure you have all the important details about the infringement.

The law says that this reminder notice is an official document, so it’s important to pay attention to it if you receive one.
