(1)The relevant references to the authority or authorities in relation to an advanced quality partnership scheme—
(a)include a local transport authority if it has been varied so that it relates to that authority's area, but
(b)do not include a local transport authority if it has been varied so that it no longer relates to that authority's area.
(2)But if (although the scheme does not relate to a local transport authority's area) it would do by reason of a proposed variation, those references (apart from those in section 113J) include that authority.

(a)include a traffic regulation authority if it has been varied so that it specifies traffic regulation facilities or traffic regulation measures, but
(b)do not include a traffic regulation authority if it has been varied so that it no longer specifies such facilities or measures.
(4)But if (although the scheme does not specify facilities which are traffic regulation facilities in relation to a traffic regulation authority or measures which are traffic regulation measures in relation to a traffic regulation authority) it would do by reason of a proposed variation, those references (apart from those in section 113J) include that authority.
(5)And if (although the scheme specifies facilities which are traffic regulation facilities in relation to a traffic regulation authority or measures which are traffic regulation measures in relation to a traffic regulation authority)—
(a)the traffic regulation order, or (where more than one) each of the traffic regulation orders, required to be made by that authority for the provision of those facilities or the taking of those measures has been revoked, and
(b)the scheme is proposed to be varied (but not so that it specifies other facilities which are traffic regulation facilities in relation to that authority or other measures which are traffic regulation measures in relation to that authority),
the relevant references (apart from those in section 113J) do not include that authority.
(6)For the purposes of this section the relevant references are those in—
(a)section 113C(1) to (7),

(8)For the purposes of this section—

(b)measures are traffic regulation measures, in relation to a traffic regulation authority and an advanced quality partnership scheme, if that authority was required to be a maker of the scheme because it originally specified those measures or would have been required to be a maker of it had it done so.]
