Schemes for Corporation to provide housing accommodation in place of association E+W+S

(a) that the association is experiencing difficulty in providing housing accommodation on any land which it has acquired or in managing housing accommodation provided by it on any land, or is in any way failing to perform its functions as a housing association in relation to any land, and that accordingly it is undesirable for the land in question to remain in the hands of the association,

(b) that there is no other housing association, whether in existence or about to be formed, to which the association’s interest in the land in question can suitably be transferred, and

(c) that the land is capable of being, or continuing to be, used to provide housing accommodation for letting,

the [F326 Regulator of Social Housing] may prepare and submit to the Secretary of State a scheme.

(c) to retain the accommodation and keep it available for letting so long as the scheme has not been terminated in any manner provided for in the scheme.

(3) Where such a scheme is submitted to the Secretary of State by the [F329 Regulator of Social Housing], the Secretary of State, on being satisfied of—

(a) the undesirability of the land remaining in the hands of the association, and

(b) the lack of any housing association to which it can suitably be transferred,
