Regulation 4 Transitional provisions

Where amendments to the 1973 Act made by the 2018 Act would, apart from this regulation, have the effect that a prescriptive period expired before the day appointed in regulation 2(1), the amendments instead have the effect that the prescriptive period is extended so that it expires on the day before the day appointed in regulation 2(1).

Paragraph (1) does not apply to the amendments made by sections 5 and 13 of the 2018 Act.
