Section 23 of the Act makes provision to allow prescribed functions which are conferred on local authority officers to be exercised by persons other than the persons on whom the functions are directly conferred.\nRegulation 2 and the Schedule set out the prescribed functions and the prescribed conditions for the application of section 23 of the Act to the prescribed functions.",
