maintaining a transitional provision permitted by article 7 of and listed in—
section I.2 of Annex I, or
section II.2 of Annex II

The modification referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) apply to the identified sections of those Annexes to the Dangerous Goods Directive, and are that any reference to a member State is to be read as a reference to—
