Part 1: The Office for Students Supplementary functions Section 76: Secretary of State’s power to confer supplementary functions

	This section also enables the Secretary of State to direct that the Secretary of State’s functions in relation to an institution’s property may be exercised by the OfS, where the Secretary of State is entitled to a right or interest in respect of that property.
