Clause 9

The board may, in its discretion, appoint from among its own directors or from among other persons such number of committees as it thinks fit for purposes which, in the opinion of the board, would be better regulated and managed by means of such committees.

The board may, subject to such conditions or restrictions as it thinks fit, delegate to any committee appointed under subsection (1) or to the Chairman or any director, or to any officer or employee of the Agency or to any other person as the board thinks fit, any of the functions or powers of the Agency administered by the board under this Act or any other written law.

Any function or power delegated under subsection (2) to any committee or person may be performed or exercised by the committee or the person to whom it has been delegated, as the case may be, in the name and on behalf of the Agency.

The board may continue to administer any function or to exercise any power of the Agency notwithstanding the delegation of such function or power under this section.
