In release 7 (published December 2010), Part I is updated to give an account of the Coalition Government's proposals for financial regulatory reform in its White Paper. This Part also refers to the Financial Services Act 2010. Part VI.2 sets out the FSA's position on funds of alternative investment funds (FAIFS). Consideration of Dunlop Haywards (DHL) Ltd (in liquidation) & Ors v Barbon Insurance Group Limited & Ors is given at Part VII. Part VIII looks at the creation of a single regulator for residential mortgage lending and the widening in scope of the activity of "administering" a regulated mortgage. In addition, it reflects the FSA's focus on arrears which has led to significant fines being imposed on firms who have failed to meet regulatory requirements. A new section on the Consumer Redress Scheme is included in Part X. Part XI is updated to refer to the Financial Services Act 2010.
