  (a)

  any listed building which was not such a building immediately before 1 January 2009, and

  (b)

  the buildings specified in the table in schedule 11 (each being a listed building immediately before that date), and

• “authorised listed building works” means—

  (a)

  in relation to a listed building which was not such a building immediately before 1 January 2009, any works carried out in pursuance of this Act, and
