Article 4 Supplementary

This Order does not affect the validity of anything done (or having effect as if done) by or in relation to the Paymaster General before the coming into force of this Order.

Anything (including legal proceedings) which, at the coming into force of this Order, is in the process of being done by or in relation to the Paymaster General may, so far as it relates to anything transferred by article 3, be continued by or in relation to the Commissioners.

Anything done (or having effect as if done) by or in relation to the Paymaster General in connection with anything transferred by article 3 has effect, so far as necessary for continuing its effect after the coming into force of this Order, as if done by or in relation to the Commissioners.

Documents or forms printed for use in connection with the functions transferred by article 3 may be used in connection with those functions even though they contain, or are to be read as containing, references to the Paymaster General or an officer of his; and for the purpose of the use of any such documents or forms after the coming into force of this Order, those references are to be read as references to the Commissioners or an officer of Revenue and Customs (as appropriate).

Any enactment or instrument passed or made before the coming into force of this Order has effect, so far as is necessary for the purposes of or in consequence of article 3, as if references to (and references which are to be read as references to) the Paymaster General or an officer of his were or included references to the Commissioners or an officer of Revenue and Customs (as appropriate).
