Liability of Manager and Protection

 

  •  
A manager shall not incur any civil liability in respect of anything done or omitted to be done by him in good faith in the performance or purported performance of any function of his office as the manager

 

 
  •  
No proceedings shall be brought against a manager of a school for anything done or omitted to be done by the IMC unless he has not acted in good faith.  The general proceedings towards a school will be brought against the IMC instead of an individual manager
  
  •  
Unless with the consent or connivance of an individual manager towards the unlawful behavior, an individual manager is not held liable to the contravention of Education Ordinance by the IMC
  
  •  
An alternate manager shall not only because of his being a manager incur any liability for an act done pursuant to a voting of the IMC in which he has not participated by virtue of relevant provisions of the Ordinance
