a determination under the old section 27 (erasure or suspension of registration for crime or misconduct); or
a direction under the old section 28 (powers of Health Committee),
to suspend a person has taken effect by virtue of the old section 30 (time when determinations and directions normally take effect and orders for immediate suspension), whether or not that decision was taken before 31st July 2006 or by virtue of the transitional provisions set out in this Order and Schedule 7 to the 2005 Order (transitional provisions), that suspension shall, for the purposes of the new section 27C (resumed hearings) be treated as a suspension directed in a direction of the relevant Practice Committee under the new section 27B(6)(b) (the Practice Committees).

that erasure shall, for the purposes of the new section 28 (restoration of names to the register following erasure under the new section 27B) be treated as an erasure directed in a direction of the Professional Conduct Committee under the new section 27B(6)(a); and
as regards any case to which this paragraph applies, the new section 28(2)(a) shall apply as if for “five years” there were substituted “ten months”.
