This section applies if immediately before the commencement a person was subject to a fine option order.

If the person was subject to 2 or more fine option orders, the registrar may combine the orders into a single work and development order applying under subsection (2).
The registrar must assign an approved sponsor for a work and development order mentioned in subsection (2).

Former section 129 applies for revoking the order despite the repeal of that section by the amendments.
The registrar must give the person a written notice explaining the effect of this section and stating the name of the approved sponsor for the person’s work and development order.
