(2) In its continued application by virtue of paragraph (1), paragraph 1 of Schedule 2 to the Enterprise Act 2002 (Protection of Legitimate Interests) Order 2003 has effect as if it contained no power for an undertaking accepted under that paragraph to be varied or superseded.

(3) Any provision of the Enterprise Act 2002 applied by the Enterprise Act 2002 (Protection of Legitimate Interests) Order 2003 which—

(a) was applied by that Order immediately before 1st April 2014, and

(b) as so applied referred to an undertaking accepted under paragraph 1 of Schedule 2 to that Order, but

(c) as a result of an amendment made to the provision by the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013, ceased to refer to such an undertaking

is, in relation to an undertaking accepted before that date, to be treated in its application by that Order as continuing to refer to such an undertaking despite that amendment.
