(2)It is for the social landlord to pay the manager’s remuneration and expenses.

(3)A manager has—

(a)general powers to do anything required to perform the manager’s functions (including power to enter into agreements or do anything else which the social landlord has power to do), and

(b)such specific powers as the Regulator may specify.

(4)But a manager must comply with any direction by the Regulator about the performance of the manager’s functions (and may be removed on failure to so comply).
