(2) The transferee is entitled to an initial payment in relation to the relevant transmission interest only if no initial payment under section 71 or 76 for the transferred interest has previously been made to any other person in relation to the relevant transmission interest.
(3) The transferee is entitled to a subsequent payment for a relevant year in relation to the relevant transmission interest only if no payment under section 73 or 77 (as appropriate) has been made for that year to any previous holder of the transferred interest in relation to the relevant transmission interest.
