c.8                 Financial Services Act 2008                155

                                (5) In determining for any purposes of this Act whether
                           any particular matter is desirable in the public interest, the
                           Commission shall take into account all matters which appear to it
                           in the particular circumstances to be relevant and, among other
                           things, shall have regard to —

                                  (a) the protection of the public;

                                  (b) the deterrent effect of such a public statement; and

                                  (c) the effect of publication on those to whom the statement
                                      relates.

                                (6) In this Act a “related company”, in relation to a permitted
                           person, means a body corporate (other than a subsidiary of the
                           institution) in which the institution holds a qualifying capital interest.

                                (7) A qualifying capital interest means an interest in
                           relevant shares of the body corporate which the permitted person
                           holds on a long-term basis for the purpose of securing a
                           contribution to its own activities by the exercise of control or
                           influence arising from that interest.

                                (8) Relevant shares means shares comprised in the equity
                           share capital of the body corporate of a class carrying rights to
                           vote in all circumstances at general meetings of the body.

                                (9) A holding of 20 per cent or more of the nominal value
                           of the relevant shares of a body corporate shall be presumed to be
                           a qualifying capital interest unless the contrary is shown.

                                (10) In subsection (8), “equity share capital” has the same
                           meaning as in section 1(5) of the Companies Act 1974.                [c.30]



                           49. The enactments specified in Schedule 6 are amended in Amendment
                           accordance with that Schedule.                                       of enactments



                           50. The enactments specified in column 1 of Schedule 7 are Repeal of
                           repealed to the extent specified in column 3 of that Schedule but    enactments
                           subject to the transitional provisions and savings in paragraph 5
                           of Schedule 8.



                           51. The transitional and saving provisions set out in Schedule 8 Transitional
                           shall have effect.



                           52. (1) Any expenses incurred under this Act by the Treasury or Financial
                           the Commission shall be defrayed out of money provided by Tynwald.   provisions
