(4)A court in Scotland shall not have jurisdiction to entertain an application for the variation of a [F1Part I order] made [F6in matrimonial [F7or civil partnership] proceedings where the court has refused to grant the principal remedy sought in the proceedings] if, on the date of the application, matrimonial [F7or civil partnership] proceedings in respect of the marriage [F8or civil partnership] concerned are continuing in another court in the United Kingdom.
(5)Subsections (3) and (4) above shall not apply if the court in which the other proceedings there referred to are continuing has made—

(ii)but for section 3(2), 6(3), 20(2) or 23(3) of this Act, a court in another part of the United Kingdom would have jurisdiction to make a [F1Part I order] or an order varying a [F1Part I order]; and
