There are currently no plans to extend shari'ah compliant financing into the UK banking system, but the Government will continue to work with the financial services industry to broaden the range of shari'ah compliant products and services available in the UK, and encourage the industry to play its part. The Government welcomes, for example, the recent creation of an Islamic Account by Lloyds Bank. This account allows customers who cannot receive credit or debit interest due to their religious beliefs to hold a bank account in the UK and is available to all UK citizens regardless of background or faith.<\/p>
<\/p>
Furthermore, The Bank of England has recently announced that it will be commencing work to assess the feasibility of establishing a shari'ah compliant facility next year, which the Government welcomes. Any such facility will help Islamic banks in the UK to better meet their obligations under the liquidity rules, bringing Islamic finance further into the mainstream.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4117", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrea Leadsom"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "South Northamptonshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Andrea Leadsom"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2014-10-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2014-10-23T13:56:47.8066698Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2014-10-17", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Financial Services: Islam"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what plans he has to extend Sharia financing within the UK banking system.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1576", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mark Pritchard"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "The Wrekin"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mark Pritchard"} ], "uin" : "210980"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/99713", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "HM Treasury"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/99713/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The UK has a comprehensive anti-money laundering and counter financing of terrorism regime and the Government is committed to ensuring our financial system is a hostile environment for illicit finances.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The international money laundering and counter financing of terrorism standards are incorporated into various pieces of UK law, predominantly the Money Laundering Regulations (2007) and the Proceeds of Crime Act (2002) and also the Terrorism Act 2000. All banks within the UK banking system must comply with that legislation.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Treasury is also responsible for implementing financial sanctions in the UK and for making designations under the Terrorist Asset Freezing etc. Act 2010. We are committed to ensuring that our terrorist asset freezing powers continue to be used and administered in an effective and proportionate way to help protect the public from the threat of terrorism.<\/p>

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) have published information on estimates of the cost of the relief. For the year 2009-10, HMRC estimated the relief cost £120 million. For the years 2010-11 through to 2013-14 HMRC estimate the cost of the relief to be £90 million per annum.<\/p>
