Reviewing Regulation

The Government regularly commissions reviews of different areas of regulation.

The reviews look at how to improve compliance, maintain protections and keep people well-informed, while reducing costs and administration wherever possible.

They also try and ensure the UK has a regulatory system equipped to deal with the key issues we face in the 21st century. These include environmental concerns like climate change, health issues such as obesity and how new technologies affect the way we communicate.

Review of the Money Laundering Regulations 2007

HM Treasury, assisted by colleagues in the Better Regulation Executive, is reviewing the anti-money laundering regime under the 2007 Money Laundering Regulations.

On 9 October 2009 a Call for Evidence was launched. The team wants to capture views on how the regulations are designed as well as how they work in practice, in terms of how effective and proportionate they are and how much engagement there has been. The review will focus on the full scope of the 2007 Regulations (not simply changes made in 2007), on guidance, and on other communication and engagement with stakeholders. The review will also consider supervisory arrangements, industry practice and the customer experience under the regulations.
