The rule in plain words
A greater than zero amount is reported under 'Premiums written - gross - direct' [R0111], therefore a greater than zero number or amount should typically be reported in at least one of the rows: 'Number of risks written in the period - direct - both new and renewal business' [R1710]; or 'Sum insured in-force at end of the period - direct' [R1730] for the columns: C1130; C1141; C1151; C1160; C1180; C1190; C1200; C1210; C1220; C1230; C1240; C1250; C1260
The headline gives only the template and the kind of check, because the rule is too long to say in a headline. The plain words above say all of it.
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02The check applies only when its first part holds in your return. When it does, the second part must hold too: fix the second part, or correct the first.
- 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark IR.05.04 as reported.
- 04This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.
