The Secretary of State may by regulations designate a person for the purposes of this section; and a person so designated is referred to in this Part as a "delivery body".
The designation of a person for the purposes of this section has effect subject to any conditions imposed by the Secretary of State in the regulations designating the person.
More than one person may be designated for the purposes of this section at the same time.
Regulations under this section may designate different persons for different purposes.
The Secretary of State may by regulations revoke a person's designation if the person ceases to meet any condition subject to which the designation has effect.
The Secretary of State may make indemnity payments to a delivery body (subject to subsection (9)).
An indemnity payment is a payment in respect of costs or expenses incurred by a delivery body in connection with judicial review proceedings in relation to anything done, or omitted to be done, in the exercise (or purported exercise) of functions conferred on the body by regulations under section 6C.
An indemnity payment may be made subject to such conditions as may be determined by the Secretary of State.
