(2)In sub-paragraphs (3) to (5) “liability proceedings” means proceedings for the expenditure’s recovery under section 47(9) of the 1948 Act from a person other than A if the proceedings are brought against that other person (“B”) on account of B having, at a time before the appointed day, been for the purposes of the 1948 Act liable to maintain A.
(3)No liability proceedings may be begun, or continued, on or after the appointed day; but this is subject to sub-paragraph (5).
