a company designated by the Treasury by order in certain circumstances.
An impact assessment was prepared for Part 6 of the Act and is available on HM Treasury’s website (www.gov.uk/treasury) or from HM Treasury, 1 Horse Guards Road, London SW1A 2HQ. This Order will have no separate impact on the costs of business and the voluntary sector, and for that reason no further impact assessment has been produced.
