Where a commons registration authority grants an application under section 15 of the 2006 Act for the registration of land as a town or village green before section 1 of the 2006 Act has come into force in relation to the area in which the land is situated—
the registration authority must register the land in the register of town or village greens maintained for that area under the 1965 Act; and
until the coming into force of section 1 of the 2006 Act in relation to that area, the 1965 Act applies in relation to the registration as if it had been made pursuant to section 13(b) of the 1965 Act.
In relation to any area of Wales—
references in section 24 of the 2006 Act, and in regulations made under that section, to a register of common land or town or village greens are, until the coming into force of section 1 of the 2006 Act in relation to that area, to be taken to be references to such a register maintained under the 1965 Act; and
section 13(b) of the 1965 Act, and regulations made under it
section 6 of the 2006 Act in relation to that area, insofar as they relate to land which becomes common land other than by virtue of any instrument made under or pursuant to an enactment, and
section 14 of the 2006 Act in relation to that area, insofar as they relate to land which becomes common land or a town or village green by virtue of any instrument made under or pursuant to an enactment.

In relation to any area of Wales, the reference in section 45(1) of the 2006 Act to land being registered as common land or a town or village green is, until the coming into force of section 1 of the 2006 Act in relation to that area, to be read as a reference to land being so registered under the 1965 Act.

the direction continues to have effect on and after 6 September 2007 notwithstanding the repeal of section 8(2) and (3) of the 1965 Act; and
if the direction is for a local authority to be registered as the owner of land, on the registration being made, section 8(4) of the 1965 Act will apply as if it had not been repealed.
