The Financial Services and Markets (Transitional Provisions) (Designated Date for Certain Self-Regulating Organisations) Order 2000
Both the Personal Investment Authority Limited and the Investment Management Regulatory Organisation Limited are recognised self-regulating organisations and recognised self-regulating organisations for friendly societies under the Financial Services Act 1986 (c. 60) (the 1986 Act). Schedule 21 to the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 makes transitional provisions concerning the position of such organisations pending the repeal of those provisions of the 1986 Act relating to their recognition and subsequent supervision. Amongst those provisions (which came into force on the passing of the Financial Services and Markets Act on 14th June 2000) are ones which are applicable, from a date to be designated by the Treasury, in relation to an organisation which is a recognised self-regulating organisation or a recognised self-regulating organisation for friendly societies. The relevant provisions have the effect of preventing the recognition of the organisation under the 1986 Act being revoked and of preventing an application for a compliance order being made to the court in respect of the organisation under section 13 of, or paragraph 6 of Schedule 11 to, that Act.
