Whole provisions yet to be inserted into this Act (including any effects on those provisions):
[F2(1)OSCR may, on the request of a charity, appoint a person as an interim charity trustee for the charity where—

(b)all of the charity’s existing charity trustees either—
(i)cannot be found, or
(ii)are not acting and are not expected to resume acting, or
(c)the number of the charity’s existing charity trustees who fall within sub-paragraph (i) or (ii) of paragraph (b) is such that the charity is unable to make a request under subsection (1).]

[F13(5A)For the purpose of subsection (5)(b), no account is to be taken of any charity trustees who cannot be found or are not acting.]

(7)But the [F16interim] charity trustee may not vote on whether to make such an appointment.
