(3)A society may be registered as a community benefit society only if it is shown to the satisfaction of the Authority that in view of the fact that the business of the society is being, or is intended to be, conducted for the benefit of the community, there are special reasons why the society should be registered under this Act rather than as a company under the Companies Acts.
(4)A society may not be registered as a co-operative society or community benefit society unless—

(2)Nothing in that section affects the status of a pre-2010 Act society as registered or treated as registered under this Act.”.
(3)In section 16(1) of that Act (cancellation of registration: grounds), in paragraph (c)(ii) for “neither of the conditions specified in section 1(2) of this Act is fulfilled” substitute “ the relevant registration condition is not met ”.
(4)After that subsection insert—
“(1A)For the purposes of subsection (1)(c)(ii) the relevant registration condition is not met if—
(a)in the case of a society registered as a co-operative society, the condition specified in section 1(2) is not met;
(b)in the case of a society registered as a community benefit society, the condition specified in section 1(3) is not met;
(c)in the case of a pre-2010 Act society, neither of the conditions specified in section 1(2) and (3) is met.”.
(5)In section 74(1) of that Act (interpretation - general), before the definition of “prescribed” insert—
““pre-2010 Act society” has the meaning given by section 4A(1);”.
(6)In section 20(1)(b) of the Credit Unions Act 1979 (c. 34) (cancellation of registration as credit union: adaptation of grounds), for “neither of the conditions in section 1(2) of that Act is fulfilled” substitute “ the relevant registration condition is not met ”.
(7)In section 1(9) of the Co-operatives and Community Benefit Societies Act 2003 (c. 15) (community benefit societies: power to restrict use of assets), for the definition of “community benefit society” substitute—
““community benefit society” means—
(a)a society registered under the 1965 Act as a community benefit society, or
(b)a pre-2010 Act society (as defined by section 4A(1) of the 1965 Act) which meets the condition in section 1(3) of that Act.”.

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.
