Note 3 = This should only cover sections A, B, C, D, E of the RMAR

SUP TP 1.3

Transitional provisions relating to written concessions

The purpose of the transitional provisions in the following table is to carry forward existing written concessions relating to pre-commencement provisions - for example, formal waivers or modifications given by IMRO, PIA or SFA ("an SRO") and the recognised professional bodies, written concessions from the standards in the FSA's Guide to Banking Supervisory Policy, and formal written consents and determinations made by an SRO under an SRO rule.

An existing written concession is only carried forward if the pre-commencement provision to which it relates is substantially similar to a rule in the Handbook. The substantially similar test should be applied to the specific element of the rule to which the written concession relates. An existing written concession from a pre-commencement provision which is substantially similar to written guidance in the Handbook is carried forward in the same way as pre-commencement individual guidance; see transitional provision 6A (Individual guidance) in the schedule of Transitional provisions applying to the Supervision manual only.

An existing written concession is carried forward on a temporary basis only - for 12 months from commencement or, in the case of modifications relating to the Interim Prudential sourcebooks or SUP 16.6 (Compliance reports) or SUP 16.7 (Financial reports), until the relevant provisions cease to apply. A firm wishing to retain the benefit of a concession after that time will need to apply in good time for a waiver (see SUP 8 (Waiver and modification of rules)).

An existing written concession is carried forward as an amendment to the rule to which it relates. Any such amendment has effect for all purposes (including FSA enforcement action and actions for damages under section 150 of the Act).

An existing written concession is not carried forward if, and to the extent that, doing so would be inconsistent with a community obligation of the United Kingdom, in particular with the proper implementation of a directive.

These transitional provisions do not apply to rules which are continued by designation of pre-commencement provisions rather than made as new rules. Written concessions of such rules are carried forward, to similar effect, as waivers (given under section 148 of the Act) by article 8 of The Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Transitional Provision and Savings) (Rules) Order 2001 (SI 2001/1534). The relevant rules are:

(1)

in IPRU(BANK), 3.3.15R in chapter GN; and

(2)

in IPRU(INV), those identified as designated rules in the schedule to IPRU(INV) entitled "Powers exercised".

Definitions for these transitional provisions, additional to those in the Glossary, are provided at paragraph 4 of the table.
