(1) The trustees of each fund may, in relation to any matters or class of matters, or in relation to any particular region, by writing under the seal of the trustees, delegate to a regional committee appointed in pursuance of the last preceding section or to any person, such of their powers and functions as the trustees think fit (except this power of delegation) so that the delegated powers or functions may be exercised by the delegate with respect to the matters or class of matters or the region specified in the instrument of delegation. (2) Every delegation under this section shall be revocable at will and no delegation shall prevent the exercise of any power or function by the trustees making the delegation. (3) Where in this Act the exercise of any power or function by trustees is dependent upon the opinion, belief or state of mind of the trustees in relation to any matter, that power or function may be exercised by the committee or person to whom that power or function has been delegated by the trustees, upon the opinion, belief or state of mind of that committee or person in relation to that matter.
