answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/07/2017 answer text <p>In England and Wales, there is no minimum, and no maximum level of fine which would be due on conviction of reporting misleading, false or deceptive payment practices or performance under the Regulations. This reflects the changes to maximum fines which may be imposed on summary conviction in England and Wales under the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012.

The Government has no plans to take or recommend other disciplinary action against firms or individual persons.</p> answering member printed Lord Prior of Brampton question first answered 13/07/2017 10:57:46 answering member 127 label Biography information for Lord Prior of Brampton
