Housing (Scotland) Act 2014

Delegation of certain functions

197.Section 96(1) amends section 21 of the 2006 Act by introducing a new power for the president of the private rented housing panel to delegate functions under section 23 of the 2006 Act (to refer applications to the private rented housing panel or reject applications), to the vice-president of the panel or to another member of the panel as the president sees fit (new section 21(8A) of the 2006 Act). This is in addition to the existing powers enabling the transfer of the president’s functions during times of absence or incapacity as provided for in section 21(8) of the 2006 Act. The provision is intended to increase flexibility to manage the multiple work strands undertaken by the panel. New section 21(8B) provides that such a delegation does not affect the president’s responsibility for the carrying out of delegated functions or ability to carry out the delegated functions.

198.Section 96(2) inserts new subsections (8) and (9) into section 16 of the Property Factors (Scotland) Act 2011 to provide that the functions of the president of the homeowner housing panel under section 18 (to refer applications to the homeowner housing panel for a determination as to whether a property factor has failed to carry out the factor’s duties or to comply with the property factor code of conduct or to reject applications) may be delegated to the vice-president of the panel or to such other member of the panel as the president sees fit. New subsection (9) provides that such a delegation does not affect the president’s responsibility for the carrying out of delegated functions, or ability to carry out delegated functions.
