Welcome to Essential Corporate News, our weekly news service covering the latest developments in the UK corporate world.
On October 4, 2016 the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) published for consultation a revised version of its Conduct Committee’s operating procedures for reviewing company reports and accounts. Earlier this year, the FRC made changes to its governance and executive structures which resulted in minor amendments to the Corporate Reporting Review (CRR), which came into effect on April 1, 2016. At the time, it was indicated that more extensive changes were likely to be proposed and that they would be subject to public consultation.
The consultation paper explains the rationale for the further proposed changes to the operating procedures. These are required to implement new ways of working to address requests for more transparency about CRR reviews and their outcomes, and to enhance the efficiency of CRR procedures without compromising the quality of decision-making. In addition, changes have also resulted from requests for greater transparency in respect of the review process and clarity in the content of the operating procedures.
Summarised below are the main areas of change to the operating procedures:
The consultation paper sets out questions in Section 2 of the document and invites feedback from interested parties on or before January 4, 2017.
