These Regulations exempt from that prohibition partnerships formed for the purpose of carrying on practice as actuaries and consisting of persons at least three-quarters of whom are Fellows of the Institute of Actuaries or Fellows of the Faculty of Actuaries. They replace, and revoke, earlier Regulations (S.I. 1970/835) which provided for an exemption in relation to partnerships consisting of persons all of whom were Fellows of either the Institute of Actuaries or Faculty of Actuaries.",
