According to the Social Security Administration Act 1992 s116 (2) there are "strict" time limits on when DWP prosecutions are allowed to proceed.

The date from which the clock starts to tick is dependent upon when a Certificate is issued. Does anyone know who issues the certificate, where, and how it is issued? Hel

PPI was frequently (but not wholly) sold to parties who had little or no use for it. The fact that massive levels of dishonesty were being perpetrated was ignored for many years - banks profits and bankers' bonuses were engorged as a result.
