Article 3 Transport Act 2000: transitional provision
Paragraph (2) applies for the purposes of the reimbursement of an operator of a service for providing a concession under section 145A of the Transport Act 2000f1 in respect of a journey beginning—
before 1st April 2011, and
in an area in England for which there is a both a county council and a district council.
Sections 149 and 150 of that Act (reimbursement by travel concession authority) have effect as if, despite the amendments made by article 2, the district council, rather than the county council, were the travel concession authority for the area.
The amendments made by article 2 do not prevent a council of a non-metropolitan district in England comprised in an area for which there is a county council from continuing proceedings for an offence under section 148 of the Transport Act 2000f2 that were instituted by the district council before 1st April 2011
