Save to the extent set down in this regulation, the 1997 Regulations are revoked.

The 1997 Regulations shall remain in force in respect of any claim for an award made under those Regulations before the 14th April 2005.
3
Where a person was entitled before the 14th April 2005 to make a claim under the 1997 Regulations, but on that date has not yet done so, he may make a claim under those Regulations if the relevant time limits under those Regulations have not expired.
4
Subject to paragraph (5), reservists or employers of reservists who are in relevant service on and immediately before the 14th April 2005 are not precluded from claiming an award under these Regulations solely because they have claimed, or have been made, an award under the 1997 Regulations in respect of their current period of relevant service within the meaning of those Regulations.
5
Any award claimed or made under the 1997 Regulations in respect of a period which includes relevant service under these Regulations shall be taken into account when calculating the amount of any award under these Regulations in so far as it appears to an adjudication officer that both awards relate essentially to the same period or amount.
