ENF 14.12 Decision making procedure and publication of sanctions

ENF 14.12.1G

The Act requires the FSA to issue a warning notice, decision notice and final notice before imposing a financial penalty or issuing a statement. More information on the procedure the FSA will follow in these circumstances is contained in DEC.

ENF 14.12.2G

The FSA will ordinarily publicise a financial penalty or statement by issuing a press release giving details of the behaviour and the sanction imposed. However, the Act provides that the FSA may not publish information in those circumstances where it would be unfair to the person on whom a sanction is imposed, or prejudicial to the interests of consumers.
