So like 1000 parking fines? A few hours work probably. I think they’ll be alright…

I actually disagree with this, despite hating euro car parks as much as the next guy.
If the eventually delivered data shows that no breach of consumer laws happened, then the company should just be fined a nominal amount for late delivery of data – perhaps £10k (ie. enough to make it worth setting up a special email address and making it someone’s job to check it every day).
If the data eventually showed that a breach did occur, then the lateness of delivery of the data should be used as justification to increase the fine on that.
These rules for failing to disclose data should only be used when it is clear the data will *never* be delivered – for example because it has been destroyed, or the company refuses to deliver it. Not just because it’s 3 months late and they don’t deliver it till you start talking about penalties.
