(3) If the Minister revokes a declaration made under subsection 56AS(1) in relation to an entity, then, despite the revocation, subsection 56AR(2) continues to apply to the entity in relation to:

(a) any right, privilege, obligation or liability acquired, accrued or incurred before the revocation; and

(b) any investigation, legal proceeding or remedy in respect of any such right, privilege, obligation or liability;

as if the declaration were still in force.
