37How to apply references to new legislation that is not yet in force
This section applies if legislation (new legislation)—
- is to replace (with or without modification), or is to correspond to, existing legislation; and
- is not yet in force.
A reference in legislation to the new legislation is, until that new legislation comes into force, a reference to the whole or the corresponding part of the existing legislation.
