(10) Where duties or powers are imposed or conferred— (a) on a person in their capacity as a third party recipient by or under regulations made under this Part, other than regulations made in reliance on section 4(4)(a), (aa) or (b), or (b) on a person in their capacity as a person described in section 4(4)(c) by or under regulations made under this Part, nothing in this section, or in regulations under subsection (1) or (9), prevents the person, or a person acting on their behalf, from requiring payment in connection with the performance or exercise of those duties or powers, or restricts their ability to do so, where the person could do so otherwise than in reliance on regulations under subsection (1).
