Comment On FSA Procedures
The Financial Services Authority (FSA) has asked the City to comment on its review of enforcement procedures, specifically it has asked as to whether its regulatory decisions committee is the "right model" for making contentious decisions.
The committee's Chairman, Christopher Fitzgerald, was forced to resign following him being seen talking with a lawyer who was sitting on a panel hearing an appeal against one of its decisions.
The FSA has put out a series of questions about its enforcement process, but indicated that it will not ask for changes in the legislation that sets the terms under which it operates.
The FSA was forced to review its procedures, after the financial services markets tribunal ruled against its £1.1m fine on Legal & General for endowment mis-selling could not be justified.
