“the Principles” means the Authority’s Principles for Businesses;
“the suitability Threshold Condition” means the threshold condition set out in
paragraph 2E of Schedule 6 to the Act;

to the Act;

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 Twizell is
failing to satisfy the suitability Threshold Condition, in that the Authority is not
satisfied that Mr Twizell is a fit and proper person having regard to all the
circumstances, including whether Mr Twizell managed his business in such a way
as to ensure that his affairs were conducted in a sound and prudent manner.
7.
Mr Twizell 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 Twizell has failed to
respond to the Authority’s repeated requests that he 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 failures, which are significant in the context of Mr Twizell’s suitability, lead
the Authority to conclude that Mr Twizell 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 was granted
a Part 4A permission.
