Regulation 6 Circumstances in which Regulator may waive requirement for authorisation

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(1)

The Regulator may waive the requirement for authorisation in relation to a person if—

(a)

the Secretary of State intends to exempt the person under section 6 of the Act;

(b)

the Regulator is satisfied that—

(i)

requiring the person to become authorised would be unduly burdensome to the person, or would not achieve the objects of the Act; and

(ii)

the waiver would not result in undue risk to persons whose interests the Act is intended to protect.

(2)

The Regulator must give the person a written notice of the waiver.
