    6. (f) If it is a UK designated investment firm controlled by a UK parent financial holding company or by a UK parent mixed financial holding company the firm must complete the item on the basis of the consolidated situation of that holding company if: (1) there is no subsidiary of the holding company which is a credit institution to which (e) applies; and (2) the PRA is responsible for the supervision of the firm on a consolidated basis.
    7. If the data item is required to be completed by the firm on a consolidated basis (pursuant to (d), (e) or (f) above) or on a sub-consolidated basis (pursuant to (c) above), the firm must carry out the consolidation or sub-consolidation to the same extent and in the same manner as it is required to comply with the obligations laid down in Part Six of the CRR on a consolidated basis or sub-consolidated basis.
23.

If the change is that the firm does not have to report a particular data item or does not have to report it at a particular reporting level, the firm must nevertheless report that data item or at that reporting level for any reporting period that has already begun.
24. (21) This data item must be reported in the single currency in which the firm reports for the purposes of Article 415(1) of the CRR and in any additional currencies in which the firm is required to report under Article 415(2) of the CRR.

If the change is that the firm does not have to report a particular data item or does not have to report it at a particular reporting level, the firm must nevertheless report that data item or at that reporting levelfor any reporting period that has already begun.
13. (10)
14. 1. (a) If the reporting frequency would otherwise be weekly, the item is to be reported on every business day if (and for as long as) there is a specific liquidity stress or market liquidity stress in relation to the firm, branch or group in question.
    2. (b) If the reporting frequency would otherwise be monthly, the item is to be reported:
    1. (i) every business day if the firm has total assets, calculated in accordance with provisions implementing Council Directive 86/635/EEC, equal to or greater than £5 billion on an individual basis or UK consolidation group basis; and
    2. (ii) weekly if the firm has total assets, calculated in accordance with provisions implementing Council Directive 86/635/EEC, of less than £5 billion on both an individual basis and UK consolidation group basis,

16. 1. (a) weekly if the firm has total assets, calculated in accordance with provisions implementing Council Directive 86/635/EEC, equal or greater than EUR 30 billion on either an individual basis or UK consolidation group basis.

    1. (b) monthly if the firm has total assets, calculated in accordance with provisions implementing Council Directive 86/635/EEC, of less than EUR 30 billion on both an individual basis and UK consolidation group basis. This requirement stops applying if during any monthly reporting period the total assets of the firm, on either an individual basis or UK consolidation group basis, become equal to or greater than EUR 30 billion, in which case the firm is required to start reporting this data item weekly after the end of that reporting period.
