Power of friendly society to invest in housing association. 43.(1) Without prejudice to section 39, if the rules of a registered friendly society or branch thereof expressly so direct, the trustees thereof may, with the consent of the committee or of a majority of the members present and entitled to vote in general meeting, invest the funds of the society or branch or any part thereof, in subscribing up to any amount permitted by this section for any of the share or loan capital of a housing association, other than shares or debentures not fully paid up at the time of issue. (2) The power to make investments conferred by this section is subject to the same restrictions as are imposed by section 42(2) on the power to make advances conferred by that section. (3) For the purposes of subsection (2) of section 42 any amounts for the time being invested by virtue of this section shall be taken into account in the same way as amounts outstanding in respect of advances made by virtue of that section, but so that, except in the case of investments made after the date to which the valuation or return relates, the amounts invested shall be taken to be amounts equal to the value of the investments according to the valuation or return referred to in subsection (2) of that section. (4) For the purposes of this section "housing association" means a housing association within the meaning of [Part VII of the Housing (Northern Ireland) Order 1981] or a housing association (other than a development corporation) within the meaning of the Housing Act 1957 or the Housing (Scotland) Act 1966.
