You could also call this:

"This part doesn't change things that happened before it was made"

This part of the law doesn't apply to some things that happened before it was made. If something started, happened, or was done before this law began, it's not covered by this part.

If someone broke a rule before this part of the law started, they can still be dealt with under the old rules. The old rules will work just like they did before, even though this new part exists now.

You don't need to worry about when exactly this law started. Just remember that it doesn't change things that happened before it began.
