New PAP rules October

[ostell]

I gather that the PAP rules were changed beginning of October. I will be starting a claim soon if I get no response to a letter that should have been received today.

Both of us are private individuals, claim is for loss caused by having to pay for damage to a boat caused by the other party hitting it while stationary on the mooring. It's for additional damage other than the hole in the hull that has been found and paid for by the defendant.

My query is what is now required in the letter before claim. Is the 30 days applicable when private individuals are involved? I will be be describing why I think he is liable and including with the letter all the invoices that I have had to pay. Anything else required?
