MLR1PP5150 - Penalties Guidance: Discovered non-compliance with registration requirements: Introduction

This will apply in the following circumstances:

  • (This text has been withheld because of exemptions in the Freedom of Information Act 2000)
  • A business which was previously on our MLR register failed to re-apply and we discover they continued to trade unsupervised
  • An application from a business to register/re-register is invalid or could not be processed by us because all the required information or fees were not received and we discover they continued to trade unsupervised
  • Either Compliance Officers or our Registration Team has received intelligence, from a source such as Customs Confidential to suggest a business is trading unsupervised

If these details have come via the Registration Team they must make a full report of the specific circumstances to the Risk Targeting Team.
