Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, for what reasons the Financial Conduct Authority is allowed to give Part FCA Regulated accreditation to companies which are then permitted to market themselves as FCA regulated to investors.

This is a matter for the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), which is operationally independent from Government. The question has been passed on to the FCA. The FCA will reply directly to the honourable member by letter. A copy of the letter will be placed in the Library of the House.
