Offences committed before appointed day

3(1)This paragraph applies where proceedings are commenced under this Act in relation to an offence committed before the appointed day.

(2)Nothing in this Act renders a person liable to punishment by way of fine or imprisonment for the offence which differs from the punishment to which he would have been liable if this Act had not been passed and proceedings for the offence had been commenced under the old enactments.
