125: When enforceable undertaking is enforceable

You could also call this:

“When an enforceable undertaking becomes active and can be enforced”

An enforceable undertaking starts working and can be enforced when the regulator tells you they’ve accepted it. This happens when they give you their decision. Sometimes, the regulator might say it starts on a later date. If they do, it will start on that date instead.
