(1) Members of an approved scheme shall pay a subscription, calculated as set out in the scheme, to the person administering the scheme. (1ZA) The amount of a subscription payable by a member may be calculated by reference to costs incurred, or likely to be incurred, by the person administering the scheme and the scheme’s housing ombudsman in carrying out any of their functions, including costs unconnected with the member and costs unconnected with the operation of the scheme. (1A) If a change in the method of calculation under sub-paragraph (1) would result in a member's subscription being more than it would otherwise be, the change may be made only if the Secretary of State approves it. (1B) An approved scheme's total defrayable costs for a period may be more than the scheme's total defrayable costs for the immediately-preceding corresponding period only if the Secretary of State approves the increase. (1C) In sub-paragraph (1B) “ defrayable costs ”, in relation to a scheme, means costs that are to be defrayed by subscriptions from members of the scheme. (2) If a social landlord fails to comply with his duty under paragraph 1, the Secretary of State may determine— (a) which approved scheme or schemes he should have joined, and (b) what sums by way of subscription he should have paid, and may require him to pay those amounts to the person administering the scheme or schemes. (3) The person administering an approved scheme may recover sums payable under sub-paragraph (1) or (2) as if they were debts due to him. (4) The Secretary of State ... may pay grant and provide other financial assistance to— (a) a body corporate administering an approved scheme, or (b) in a case where paragraph 10(2) applies, to the housing ombudsman under an approved scheme, for such purposes and upon such terms as the Secretary of State ... thinks fit.
