(2) If a policy to which this paragraph applies was issued before the passing of this Act section 19 shall have effect in relation to it as if subsections (2)(b), (3) and (4) were omitted ; and if a policy to which this paragraph applies was issued after the passing of this Act, paragraph (b) of section 19(2) shall have effect in relation to it as if it permitted the insurance to be on the life of the individual's parent or grandparent or, subject to sub-paragraph (3) below, on the life of the individual's child or grandchild.

(3) Relief may be given in respect of premiums under a policy of insurance on the life of an individual's child or grandchild which is issued after the passing of this Act as if paragraph (b) of section 19(3) were omitted, but may be given only if the annual amount of the premiums, together with that of any relevant premiums, does not exceed £52 ; and for this purpose a relevant premium, in relation to an insurance made at any time on the life of an individual's child or grandchild, is any premium under a policy of insurance on the same life, where the insurance is made at the same time or earlier, whether it is made by the individual or any other person.
