(10)If during any reporting period no transactions have been entered into by the party which, by virtue of the preceding provisions of this section, are required to be recorded in the transaction report for that period, the report must contain a statement to that effect.
(11)Where a registered party is a party with accounting units, subsections (2) to (10) apply separately in relation to the central organisation of the party and each of its accounting units—
(a)as if any reference to the party were a reference to the central organisation or (as the case may be) to such an accounting unit; but
(b)with the substitution, in relation to such an accounting unit, of “ [F4£1,500] ” for “ [F3£7,500]” in each place where it occurs in subsections (4) and (5).
(12)However, for the purposes of subsections (2) to (9) in their application to the central organisation and any year by virtue of subsection (11), any transaction—
(a)which is entered into by an authorised participant and any of the accounting units during that year, but
(b)which is not required to be recorded under subsection (4) or (6) (as they apply by virtue of subsection (11)) as a transaction entered into by the accounting unit,
must be treated as a transaction entered into by the authorised participant and the central organisation.
(13)Schedule 6A has effect with respect to the information to be given in transaction reports.]]

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
