If it thinks fit, the OFT may, for the purpose of enabling the licensee's business, or any part of his business, to be transferred or wound up, include as part of a determination to which subsection (2) applies provision authorising the licensee to carry on for a specified period—
(a)
specified activities, or
(b)
activities of specified descriptions,
which, because of that determination, the licensee will no longer be licensed to carry on.
(2)
This subsection applies to the following determinations—
(a)
a determination to refuse to renew a standard licence in accordance with the terms of the application for its renewal;
(b)

Such provision—

may specify different periods for different activities or activities of different descriptions;
(b)
may provide for persons other than the licensee to carry on activities under the authorisation;
(c)
may specify requirements which must be complied with by a person carrying on activities under the authorisation in relation to those activities;
and, if a requirement specified under paragraph (c) is not complied with, the OFT may by notice to a person carrying on activities under the authorisation terminate the authorisation (in whole or in part) from a specified date.
(4)
Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (c) of subsection (3), a requirement specified under that paragraph may have the effect of—
(a)
preventing a named person from being an employee of a person carrying on activities under the authorisation, or restricting the activities he may engage in as an employee of such a person;
(b)
preventing a named person from doing something, or restricting his doing something, in connection with activities being carried on by a person under the authorisation;
(c)
securing that access to premises is given to officers of the OFT for the purpose of enabling them to inspect documents or to observe the carrying on of activities.
