"The case establishes that, as a matter of common law, where an adviser receives commission for arranging a loan on behalf of a lender, the lender must not only ensure that the borrower is aware of the commission payment, but must also obtain the borrower's informed consent to the payment. If that consent is not obtained, the lender will be an accessory to the adviser's breach of fiduciary duty in failing to disclose the commission payment.0

FISA had a meeting about it here
Tuesday 23rd September 2008
Claims Company activity in relation to Commission Disclosure
Over the past few months, several members have received correspondence from claims companies, alleging there has been a breach of fiduciary duty by failing to adequately disclose the amount of commission, and not obtaining the customer s informed consent to allow the broker to keep the commission.
The purpose of the seminar is for legal and practical guidance to be disseminated, about how to respond appropriately to such correspondence.0 -
