FHDDS34110 - Approval, revoking the approval and variations: revoking approval – process - warning and minded to revoke letters: warning letters
A warning letter is appropriate where non-compliance has been identified and you decide that the business should be given an opportunity to improve its compliance to avoid revocation. Where a warning is necessary, your warning letter should be issued to the business promptly.
Your warning letter should clearly advise the business:
- what is wrong
- what it must do, (and by when) to improve its compliance.

Warning letters are not a pre-requirement for revocation but should normally be issued to a business where wrongdoing has been identified and an opportunity to improve is warranted.
A warning letter is not appropriate where:
- there is significant revenue risk in allowing the approval to continue, for example, fraud is identified
- a change in behaviour is unlikely
