What UK Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 Part 8B Cash Access Services requires

Part 8B of the UK Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 establishes a framework for cash access services in the United Kingdom. The Treasury is required to prepare a cash access policy statement outlining the government's policies on cash deposit and withdrawal services, including free cash access services for personal current accounts. The Treasury may designate relevant current account providers or operators of cash access coordination arrangements for the purposes of this Part, following consultation with the FCA and consideration of representations. The FCA is empowered to make rules and give directions to designated persons with the purpose of ensuring reasonable provision of cash access services. In determining reasonable provision, the FCA must have regard to the cash access policy statement and any local deficiencies in cash access services. The FCA may gather information and investigate relevant persons under Part 11 as modified. Disciplinary measures under Part 14 apply to designated persons. The FCA may charge fees for supervision only to designated persons who are relevant current account providers. The FCA's general duties are modified when discharging functions under this Part, excluding competition and competitiveness objectives.
