Hussain dated 25 October 2022;
“Mr Hussain’s Part 4A permission” means the permission granted by the Authority
to Mr Hussain pursuant to Part 4A of the Act;
“the Overdue Balance” means the outstanding sum of £156.19 owed by Mr Hussain
to the Authority comprising an invoice dated 15 October 2019 for regulatory fees
and levies for the period 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020 which was due for payment

REASONS FOR THE ACTION
6.
On the basis of the facts and matters and conclusions described in the Warning
Notice, and in the Decision Notice, it appears to the Authority that Mr Hussain is
failing to satisfy the suitability Threshold Condition, in that the Authority is not
satisfied that Mr Hussain is a fit and proper person having regard to all the
circumstances, including whether Mr Hussain managed his business in such a way
as to ensure that his affairs were conducted in a sound and prudent manner.
7.
Mr Hussain has failed to pay the Overdue Balance and he has not been open and
co-operative in all his dealings with the Authority, in that Mr Hussain has failed to
respond to the Authority’s repeated requests for him to pay the Overdue Balance,
and has thereby failed to comply with Principle 11 of the Principles and to satisfy
the Authority that he is ready, willing and organised to comply with the
requirements and standards of the regulatory system.
8.
These failings, which are significant in the context of Mr Hussain’s suitability, lead
the Authority to conclude that Mr Hussain has failed to manage his business in such
a way as to ensure that his affairs are conducted in a sound and prudent manner,
that he is not a fit and proper person, and that he is therefore failing to satisfy the
Threshold Conditions in relation to the regulated activities for which he has had a
Part 4A permission.
