These Rules amend the Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) Rules 2008 (S.I. 2008/2698) which apply in financial services cases in the Upper Tribunal. The changes are consequential upon the changes made by the Financial Services Act 2012 (c. 21) to the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (c. 8) concerning regulatory responsibilities in the financial services sector and are necessary to ensure that the tribunal rules function properly for future cases.
