(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order increases from £250 to £1,000 the threshold amount specified in section 339A of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (c. 29) (“POCA”).

A full impact assessment of the effect this instrument will have on the costs of business, the voluntary sector and the public sector was prepared in connection with the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Bill 2022 and copies are available from the Home Office at 2 Marsham Street, London SW1P 4DF.
