Housing and Regeneration Bill

I query what seems to be the extraordinarily far-reaching nature of this clause. It is very short and reads: "““Business (1) The HCA may carry on any business. (2) In subsection (1) ‘business’ includes undertaking””." I take it that this has nothing to do with assisting us all in our transition to the next world or wherever we may be going; nevertheless, I am not sure what: "““In subsection (1) ‘business’ includes undertaking””," means, why it is necessary and what the drafting purpose is of having it in the Bill. When I read the words: "““The HCA may carry on any business””," I am reminded of Clause 3 concerning principal powers, which we debated several days ago. It states: "““The HCA may do anything it considers appropriate for the purposes of its objects or for purposes incidental to those purposes””." We had quite a debate about the words ““anything it considers appropriate””. Nevertheless, there the HCA is clearly constrained by, "““the purposes of its objects or for purposes incidental to those purposes””," whereas here we are saying that it can carry out any business at all. I am intrigued by this and look forward to the Minister’s explanation.
