AUTHORITY AND FUNCTIONS Clause Samples
The "Authority and Functions" clause defines the specific powers, responsibilities, and roles assigned to parties or individuals under an agreement. It typically outlines who has the legal authority to act on behalf of an organization, make decisions, or execute certain tasks, and may detail the scope and limitations of these powers. For example, it might specify that only certain officers can sign contracts or approve expenditures. This clause ensures clarity regarding decision-making authority and helps prevent disputes or unauthorized actions by clearly delineating who is empowered to act and in what capacity.
