(a)the name of the trust;

(b)the functions of the trust;

(c)the number of executive directors and non-executive directors;

(f)if a scheme is to be made under section 12B, the body (being a Health Board or the Agency) which is to make the scheme.

(2)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(d), an NHS trust is to be regarded as having a significant teaching commitment in the following cases—

(a)if the trust is established to assume responsibility for the ownership and management of a hospital or other establishment or facility which, in the opinion of the Secretary of State, has a significant teaching and research commitment; and

his employment by the trust shall be disregarded in determining whether, if appointed, he will be a non-executive director of the trust.

(4)An order shall specify the accounting date of the trust.

5(1)An order may provide for the establishment of an NHS trust with effect from a date earlier than the operational date of the trust and, during the period between that earlier date and the operational date, the trust shall have such limited functions for the purposes of enabling it to begin to operate satisfactorily with effect from the operational date as may be specified in the order.

(2)If an order makes the provision referred to in sub-paragraph (1), then, at any time during the period referred to in that sub-paragraph, the NHS trust shall be regarded as properly constituted (and may carry out its limited functions accordingly) notwithstanding that, at that time, all or any of the executive officers have not yet been appointed.

(3)If an order makes the provision referred to in sub-paragraph (1) above, the order may require a Health Board to discharge such liabilities of the NHS trust as—
