Appointment of non-executive members 2 1 The Chair is to be appointed by the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office. 2 The other non-executive members are to be appointed by the Chair except for the first three who are to be appointed by the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office. 3 A person may not be appointed as a non-executive member if the person is a member of the IBCA’s staff. Appointment of executive members 3 1 The chief executive and the other executive members are to be appointed by the Chair. 2 The executive members are to be members of the IBCA’s staff. Appointments of members: eligibility 4 1 The Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office may by regulations make provision about criteria which must be met by persons in order to be appointed as members of the IBCA. 2 The regulations may make provision for a person to cease to be a member of the IBCA if the person no longer meets those criteria. Terms of membership 5 1 A member of the IBCA holds and vacates office in accordance with the terms of the member’s appointment (subject to this Schedule). 2 A member may resign from office by giving notice to the appropriate person. 3 A member may be removed from office by notice given by the appropriate person on the grounds that the member— a has without reasonable excuse failed to discharge the member’s functions, or b is, in the opinion of the appropriate person, unable or unfit to carry out the member’s functions. 4 A person ceases to be— a a non-executive member of the IBCA upon becoming a member of its staff; b an executive member of the IBCA upon ceasing to be a member of its staff. 5 In this paragraph “appropriate person” means— a in the case of the Chair, the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office; b in the case of any other member of the IBCA, the Chair. Non-executive members: payments 6 1 The IBCA must pay, or make provision for the payment of, such remuneration, pensions, allowances or gratuities as the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office determines to or in respect of a person who is or has been— a the Chair, or b a non-executive member appointed by the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office under paragraph 2(2). 2 The IBCA must pay, or make provision for the payment of, such remuneration, pensions, allowances or gratuities as the Chair determines to or in respect of a person who is or has been a non-executive member appointed by the Chair under paragraph 2(2). 3 Sub-paragraph (4) applies if— a a person ceases to be the Chair or a non-executive member appointed by the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office under paragraph 2(2), and b the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office determines that the person should be compensated because of special circumstances. 4 Where this sub-paragraph applies, the IBCA must pay the person compensation of such amount as the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office may determine. 5 Sub-paragraph (6) applies if— a a person ceases to be a non-executive member appointed by the Chair under paragraph 2(2), and b the Chair determines that the person should be compensated because of special circumstances. 6 Where this sub-paragraph applies, the IBCA must pay the person compensation of such amount as the Chair may determine. Staffing 7 1 The IBCA may— a appoint employees, and b make such other arrangements for the staffing of the IBCA as it determines. 2 The IBCA must pay its staff such remuneration as may be determined in accordance with this paragraph. 3 The IBCA must pay, or make provision for the payment of, such pensions, allowances, gratuities or compensation as may be determined in accordance with this paragraph to or in respect of any person who is or has been a member of staff of the IBCA. 4 Members of staff of the IBCA are to be appointed on such other terms as may be determined in accordance with this paragraph. 5 A matter is determined in accordance with this paragraph if— a in the case of a matter which relates to an executive member, it is determined by the Chair; b in the case of a matter which relates to any other member of staff, it is determined by the IBCA. 6 Before making a determination as to remuneration, pensions, allowances, gratuities or compensation for the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) or (3), the IBCA must obtain the approval of the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office as to its policy on that matter. Interim chief executive 8 1 The Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office may appoint a person as an executive member to act as chief executive of the IBCA (“an interim chief executive”) until the appointment of the first chief executive by the Chair under paragraph 3(1). 2 An interim chief executive may incur expenditure and do other things in the name of and on behalf of the IBCA until the appointment of the first chief executive by the Chair under paragraph 3(1). 3 In exercising the power in sub-paragraph (2), an interim chief executive must act in accordance with any directions given by the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office. 4 Paragraphs 3, 5 and 7 do not apply to an interim chief executive. Committees and sub-committees 9 1 The IBCA may appoint such committees and sub-committees as it considers appropriate. 2 A committee or sub-committee may consist of or include persons who are neither members, nor members of staff, of the IBCA. 3 The IBCA may pay such remuneration and allowances as it may determine to any person who— a is a member of a committee or a sub-committee, but b is not a member of staff of the IBCA, whether or not that person is a non-executive member of the IBCA. Procedure 10 1 The IBCA may determine its own procedure and the procedure of any of its committees or sub-committees. 2 The validity of any proceedings of the IBCA, or any committee or sub-committee of the IBCA, is not affected by any vacancy among its members or by any defect in the appointment of such a member. Exercise of functions 11 1 The IBCA must have regard to the need to exercise its functions effectively, efficiently and economically. 2 The IBCA may delegate any of its functions to— a a member of the IBCA, b a member of the IBCA’s staff authorised for that purpose, or c any committee or sub-committee. 3 A function may be delegated to the extent and on the terms that the IBCA determines. Funding 12 1 The Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office must pay to the IBCA— a such sums as are required to meet payments made by the IBCA under the infected blood compensation scheme, and b such other sums as the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office considers are reasonably sufficient to enable the IBCA to carry out its functions. 2 Payments under sub-paragraph (1)(b) may be made subject to conditions. 3 The Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office may by regulations make provision about what the IBCA must do with any sums repaid to it by virtue of section 50(5) (which may include provision requiring the sums to be paid to the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office). Annual report 13 1 As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each financial year the IBCA must prepare a report on the exercise of its functions during that financial year. 2 The IBCA must send the report to the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office. 3 The Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office must lay the report before Parliament.

Meaning of “financial year” 15 In this Schedule “financial year” means— a the period beginning with the date on which the IBCA is established and ending with 31 March following that date, and b each successive period of 12 months. Provision of information 16 The IBCA must provide to the Secretary of State or the Minister for the Cabinet Office such information relating to the IBCA’s functions as they may request. Status 17 1 The IBCA is not to be regarded— a as the servant or agent of the Crown, or b as enjoying any status, immunity or privilege of the Crown. 2 The IBCA’s property is not to be regarded as property of, or property held on behalf of, the Crown. 3 Service as a member, or a member of staff, of the IBCA is not service in the civil service of the State. Seal and evidence 18 1 The application of the IBCA’s seal must be authenticated by a signature of— a a member of the IBCA, or b another person authorised for that purpose by the IBCA. 2 A document purporting to be duly executed under the IBCA’s seal or signed on its behalf— a is to be received in evidence, and b is to be taken to be executed or signed in that way, unless the contrary is shown. 3 But this paragraph does not apply in relation to any document which is, or is to be, signed in accordance with the law of Scotland.
