However, we do not believe the extension of the FOI to housing associations is the best means of achieving that.</p><p>Housing Associations are already required to make a significant amount of information public. They are required to publish their accounts annually, including a strategic report covering issues such as the remunerations of key personnel.</p><p>The Regulator of Social Housing, which regulates the sector, also publishes information supplied by Housing Association at individual provider level, including details of their stock holdings, rent levels and evictions.</p> answering member printed Lord Young of Cookham question first answered 03/07/2019 13:11:07 answering member 57 label Biography information for Lord Young of Cookham

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/07/2019 answer text <p>HM Treasury is responsible for the Money Laundering Regulations 2017, which set out the high-level requirements on regulated businesses to combat money laundering. These Regulations are not prescriptive in setting out how customer due diligence (CDD) checks must be carried out, and instead require businesses to take a proportionate approach. Each business will therefore have their own policies based on their assessment of risks.</p><p> </p><p>Specific guidance for banks on applying customer due diligence measures and ongoing monitoring of customers is included in guidance published by the Joint Money Laundering Steering Group. This guidance is approved by HM Treasury, and it highlights that a firm must apply CDD measures at appropriate times to its existing customers on a risk-sensitive basis.</p> answering member printed Lord Young of Cookham question first answered 08/07/2019 13:15:55 answering member 57 label Biography information for Lord Young of Cookham
