Regulation 5 Agency arrangements

The National Assembly may, with the agreement of any other competent authority, arrange for any of its functions in relation to any claims to be exercised on its behalf by that competent authority.

The National Assembly may also agree to exercise functions on behalf of another competent authority corresponding to those which are exercisable by the National Assembly under these or the principal regulations.

Any such an arrangement shall be in writing and be signed by or on behalf of the competent authorities concerned and such arrangement may be subject to such conditions (including conditions as to the costs and charge for costs) as may be agreed.
