Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many times the powers in the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 to impose requirements on firms to change their behaviour have been used and whether they will list each occasion and what requirements were requested.
Information on the FCA’s enforcement powers and its policy on financial penalties is set out in detail in the enforcement section of their website, and in their Handbook.
We have passed Lord Mendelsohn’s questions on to the FCA, who will reply directly to him by letter. A copy of the letter will be placed in the Library of the House.
