re-enacted Act or provision; and

        (b)     insofar as any subordinate instrument made or other thing done under the repealed Act or provision, or having effect as if so made or done, could have been made or done under the re-enacted Act or provision, it shall have effect as if made or done under the re‑enacted Act or provision.
