I41
The relevant licensing authority may impose conditions (or further conditions) on a person's holding of a restricted interest in a licensed body (or a restricted interest of a particular kind) if—
a
it is not satisfied that the approval requirements are met in relation to the person's holding of that interest, or
b
it is satisfied that a condition imposed under paragraph 17 or 28 or this paragraph on the person's holding of that interest has not been, or is not being, complied with.
2
The licensing authority may act under sub-paragraph (1) only—
I4a
if it considers that, if the conditions are complied with, it will be appropriate for the investor to hold the restricted interest without the approval requirements being met, and
I3b
before the end of such period (beginning with the time when the licensing authority becomes aware of the matters in question) as may be prescribed.
I43
If the licensing authority proposes to impose conditions (or further conditions) on the person's holding of the restricted interest, it must give the person and the licensed body a warning notice.
I44
But the licensing authority may impose conditions (or further conditions) on the person's holding of the restricted interest without giving a warning notice if it considers it necessary or desirable to do so for the purpose of protecting any of the regulatory objectives.

The warning notice must—
I4a
specify the nature of the conditions proposed and the reasons for their imposition, and
I3b
state that representations may be made to the licensing authority within the prescribed period.
I36
The licensing authority must consider any representations made within the prescribed period.
I47
If the licensing authority imposes conditions (or further conditions) on the person's holding of the restricted interest, it must notify the person and the licensed body as soon as reasonably practicable.
I48
The notice must—
a
specify the reasons for the imposition of the conditions, and the time from which they are to take effect, and
b
explain the effect of Part 5 of this Schedule.

The person and the licensed body may before the end of the prescribed period appeal to the relevant appellate body against any or all of the conditions (or further conditions).

a
modify or quash the conditions imposed by the licensing authority under paragraph 33, or
b
remit the matter to the licensing authority.
I53
A party to the appeal may before the end of the prescribed period appeal to the High Court on a point of law arising from the decision of the relevant appellate body, but only with the permission of the High Court.
I64
The High Court may make such order as it thinks fit.
I65
If the person's holding of the restricted interest is subject to any conditions as a result of an order made on an appeal under this paragraph, for the purposes of this Schedule those conditions are to be treated as having been imposed under paragraph 33.
