  • “appointment”, in the case of any appointed person, means appointment under section 121(5B) of this Act.

Appointments

2An appointment under section 121(5B) of this Act must be in writing and—

(b)may provide for any function to which it relates to be exercisable by the appointed person either unconditionally or subject to the fulfilment of such conditions as may be specified in the appointment, and

(c)may, by notice in writing given to the appointed person, be revoked at any time by the appropriate Minister in respect of any question which has not been determined by the appointed person before that time.

Powers of appointed person

3Subject to the provisions of this Schedule, an appointed person shall, in relation to the determination of any question to which his appointment relates, have the same powers and duties as the appropriate Minister, other than—

(a)any function of holding an inquiry or other hearing or of causing an inquiry or other hearing to be held; or

(b)any function of appointing a person for the purpose—

(i)of enabling persons to appear before and be heard by the person so appointed; or

(ii)of referring any question or matter to that person.

(a)may hold an inquiry or other hearing in connection with the determination of the question, and

(b)shall, if the appropriate Minister so directs, hold an inquiry in connection with that determination.

(3)Where an appointed person holds an inquiry or other hearing by virtue of this Schedule, an assessor may be appointed by the appropriate Minister to sit with the appointed person at the inquiry or hearing and advise him on any matters arising, notwithstanding that the appointed person is to determine the question.

Certain acts and omissions of appointed person to be treated as those of appropriate Minister

(b)in subsection (4) (recovery of costs of holding inquiry) references to the Minister causing the inquiry to be held were references to the appropriate Minister, and

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
