List of addenda to instruments

Minor non-legal changes

The FCA and PRA have made minor changes to the FCA and PRA Handbooks listed in the links below. These changes do not alter the legal effect of the Handbook text; they have therefore been made without consultation and without the use of an instrument. They have not been detailed in a Handbook Notice.

The lists are compiled by year of amendment, and the current list is updated monthly. The lists show the details of each change and the date on which it was incorporated into the consolidated version of the Handbooks.

Those changes to the Handbooks which have legal effect will continue to be made by instrument.
