(a) was made under:

(i) an Act; or

(ii) an instrument made under an Act; and

(b) was in force immediately before the commencement time.

(2) If:

(a) immediately before the commencement time, the affected instrument contained a reference to the expression in column 1 of an item of the following table; and

(b) the expression had the same meaning in the affected instrument as it had in this Act as in force immediately before the commencement time; and
