Section 19 Directions.
England, Wales and Scotland
The relevant Minister may, after consultation with a Tourist Board, give to it directions of a general character as to the exercise of its functions.
Subject to the provisions of any scheme under section 3 F1. . . of this Act, the relevant Minister may, with the approval of the Treasury, give to a Tourist Board directions as to—
the matters with respect to which that Board must be satisfied before making a loan under the scheme . . .;
the terms on which and the conditions subject to which any such loan is to be made;
the conditions to be imposed in making any grant under the scheme . . .;
and such directions may distinguish between different classes of case.
Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (a) of subsection (2) of this section, directions given by virtue of that paragraph may require a Tourist Board to be satisfied that the applicant cannot obtain a loan for the purpose in question from any other source, whether on terms which are more or less favourable than those of any loan which might be made by the Board.
A Tourist Board shall give effect to any directions given to it under this section.
