Subsection (2) applies in relation to regulations under section 28 imposing requirements on an offshore licensee to retain information or samples.

The regulations may provide for those requirements to continue following a termination of rights under the licensee's licence (whether by transfer, surrender, expiry or revocation and whether in relation to all or only part of the licence).

Regulations under section 28 may not impose requirements which have effect in relation to particular petroleum-related information or particular petroleum-related samples at any time when an information and samples plan dealing with the information or samples has effect (see sections 30 to 33).
