REASONS FOR 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 Milap is
failing to satisfy the suitability Threshold Condition, in that the Authority is not
satisfied that Mr Milap is a fit and proper person having regard to all the
circumstances, including whether Mr Milap managed his business in such a way
as to ensure that his affairs were conducted in a sound and prudent manner.

7.
This is because Mr Milap has failed to comply with the regulatory requirements to
submit the Return and pay the Overdue Balance. Mr Milap has not been open and
co-operative in all his dealings with the Authority, in that he has failed to respond
adequately to the Authority's repeated requests for him to submit the Return and
pay the Overdue Balance, and has thereby failed to comply with Principle 11 of
the Authority's Principles for Businesses and to satisfy the Authority that he is
ready, willing and organised to comply with the requirements and standards
under the regulatory system.

8.
These failures, which are significant in the context of Mr Milap’s suitability, lead
the Authority to conclude that Mr Milap 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 Mr Milap
has had a permission.
