Powers definition

Powers means all of the general and specific powers of the authority as provided in this chapter which shall be broadly and liberally interpreted to authorize the authority to act in accordance with the goals of the authority and in a manner consistent with the legislative findings and guiding principles.

Powers means transfer powers in the form of Schedule 4 attached hereto.

Powers is about the means that an actor has to exercise its allocated compe- tence. For our purposes, we can think of powers as a broad, rather diffuse, cat- egory. In our context, it includes the power to take individual decisions (eg a whole range of supervisory and investigatory powers). It also includes general de- cision-making powers (eg the power to issue instructions to a group of actors). The addressees of these powers are market actors, but also, depending on the power, NCAs. The important point is that in our conceptualization, powers and competence are essential aspects of authority. They are intrinsically linked: with- out adequate powers, competence is a meaningless concept; without competence, an actor lacks the authority to exercise its powers.
