REC 3.2 Form and method of notification

Where a recognised body is required to give any notice or information under any notification rule, it may do so (unless that rule expressly provides otherwise) orally or in writing, whichever is the more appropriate in the circumstances, but, where it gives notice or information orally, it must confirm that notice or information in writing promptly.

Unless otherwise stated in the notification rule, a written notification required from a recognised body under any notification rule must be:

1. (1)

   given to, or addressed for the attention of, the recognised body's usual supervisory contact at the FCA;

2. (2)

   delivered to the FCA by one of the methods in REC 3.2.3 R.

The address for a written notification to the FCA is:

The Financial Conduct Authority

12 Endeavour Square

London, E20 1JN

If a notification rule requires notification within a specified period:

1. (1)

   the recognised body must give the notification so as to be received by the FCA no later than the end of that period; and

2. (2)

   if the end of that period falls on a day which is not a business day, the notification must be given so as to be received by the FCA no later than the first business day after the end of that period.
