a committee established under
section 4D
; or
(c)
an employee of the Authority, whether by reference to the name of the employee or to the office held by the employee.
(2)
A delegation must not be
made—
(a)
in relation to the power of the Authority to delegate under this section; or
(b)
in relation to a function specified in
Schedule 1D
.
(3)
If the Authority delegates a function, it may at the same time authorize the delegate to sub-delegate the function.
(4)
The Authority
may—
(a)
revoke a delegation, or an authorization for a sub-delegation;
(b)
attach restrictions or conditions to a delegation; or
(c)
attach restrictions or conditions to an authorization for a sub-delegation, including those on the exercise of the power to sub-delegate.

If a person or a committee purports to act under a delegation or sub-delegation, the person or the committee is presumed, unless the contrary is proved, to be acting in accordance with the terms of the delegation or sub-delegation.

Without affecting subsection (5), if there is a delegation or sub-delegation in relation to a function of the Authority, a reference in this Ordinance or any other Ordinance to the Authority in connection with the performance of the function is, unless the context otherwise requires, to be construed accordingly.
