Extent: E+W
Status: prospective

(1) This paragraph applies where—
(a) an enforcement notice has been issued by the Welsh Ministers before section 152 of the principal Act comes into force, and
(b) a stop notice that relates to the enforcement notice has been served before that section comes into force, or a copy of such a stop notice is served after it comes into force.
