This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).
6(1)The Corporation may by order appoint a person to be a director or trustee of a registered social landlord which is a registered charity—
(a)in place of a person removed by the Corporation,
(b)where there are no directors or no trustees, or
(c)where the Corporation is of the opinion that it is necessary for the proper management of the charity’s affairs to have an additional director or trustee.
The power conferred by paragraph (c) may be exercised notwithstanding that it will cause the maximum number of directors or trustees permissible under the charity’s constitution to be exceeded.
(2)The Corporation shall only exercise its power under sub-paragraph (1) if—
(a)the charity has, at any time before the power is exercised, received financial assistance, had property transferred to it, or received a grant or loan as mentioned in paragraph 5, and
(b)the Corporation has consulted the Charity Commissioners.
(3)A person may be so appointed notwithstanding any restrictions on appointment in the charity’s constitution or rules.
(4)A person appointed under this paragraph shall hold office for such period and on such terms as the Corporation may specify; and on the expiry of the appointment the Corporation may renew the appointment for such period as it may specify.
This does not prevent a person appointed under this paragraph from retiring in accordance with the charity’s constitution or rules.
(5)A person appointed under this paragraph as director or trustee of a registered charity is entitled—
(a)to attend, speak and vote at any general meeting of the charity and to receive all notices of and other communications relating to any such meeting which a member is entitled to receive,
(b)to move a resolution at any general meeting of the charity, and
(c)to require a general meeting of the charity to be convened within 21 days of a request to that effect made in writing to the directors or trustees.
