Section 5 - Ancillary powers
34.Section 5 provides that the Authority may do anything which is calculated to facilitate, or which is conducive or incidental to, the exercise of its functions. This ensures that in addition to the specific powers the Authority is given to perform its core functions under the Act, it also has the powers it needs to be able to operate effectively, for example to enter into contracts, or to acquire land to accommodate its staff or equipment.
35.Subsection (2) places a restriction on the ability of the Authority to borrow money. It may only borrow from the Welsh Ministers.
