### sch.1-sec.10 Period of effect of transitional licences—compliance period ended
This section applies to a transitional licence if—
the licence is not an expired licence; and
the compliance period for the licence ended before the commencement day.
The licence is taken to have remained in force for the period starting when the compliance period ended and ending on the day before the commencement day.
Also, the licence remains in force, subject to this Act, until the end of the period of 3 months starting on the commencement day.
Subsection (6) applies if—
before the commencement day, the relevant licensee entered into a building contract; and
neither of the following things happens before the end of the period of 3 months mentioned in subsection (3)—
practical completion under the contract;
termination of the contract.
However, subsection (6) applies only for the contract or contracts to which it relates.
Despite subsection (3), the licence remains in force, subject to this Act—
if, by the application of subsection (4), there is only 1 contract involved—until one of the following things happens—
the stage of practical completion is reached under the contract;
the contract is terminated; or
if, by the application of subsection (4), there is more than 1 contract involved—until there is no contract either under which the stage of practical completion has not been reached or that has not been terminated.
