Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

Part 6 of the the Financial Services Act 2012 (“the Act”) makes provision for the regulators (the Financial Conduct Authority, the Prudential Regulation Authority and the Bank of England) to establish a scheme for the investigation of complaints arising in connection with the exercise of, or failure to exercise, any of their “relevant functions”. Section 85 of the Act specifies the relevant functions in relation to the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority as being their functions under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (other than their legislative functions) and such other functions as the Treasury may by order provide. Article 2 of this Order provides that the functions of the Financial Conduct Authority in relation to regulated covered bonds, payment services, electronic money and payments in Euro are to be “relevant functions” for the purposes of the complaints scheme.
