• Establish and oversee a risk management framework in order to safeguard the assets of the CLT

• Take appropriate advice

• Ensure that at any time when the CLT is registered with the Regulator as a provider of social housing, that it takes account of any obligation imposed upon the CLT by the Regulator in exercise of its powers
