65F Old instruments
(1) Each old instrument continues to have effect according to its tenor on and after the effective date of an Order under section 65C as if a reference in the instrument to an aggregated hospital were a reference to the new hospital.
S. 65F(2) inserted by No. 66/1998 s. 9(2).
(2) Without limiting the effect of subsection (1), on and from the effective date of an Order under section 65C, an instrument creating a trust in relation to—
(a) an aggregated hospital to which the Order relates; or
(b) a former agency of which such an aggregated hospital is the successor agency—
continues to have effect according to its tenor as if the trust were in relation to the new hospital.
S. 65FA inserted by No. 66/1998 s. 10.
65FA Trusts in relation to aggregated hospitals
Sections 65D and 65F, as amended by section 9 of the **Health Services (Further Amendment) Act 1998**, have effect with respect to—
(a) an Order made under section 65C before the commencement of that section of that Act; and
(b) an instrument of a kind referred to in section 65F(2)—
in the same way as they would if they had been in force as so amended at the time when the Order was made and must be taken to have always had that effect on and from that time.
S. 65G inserted by No. 46/1995 s. 10.
