(1)Where immediately before the abolition date—
(a)any property is held exclusively for charitable purposes by ILEA as sole trustee; and
(b)the charity is primarily for the benefit of the area of a single inner London council;
that property shall on that date vest for the like purposes in that council.
(2)Where immediately before that date any power with respect to any such charity as is mentioned in subsection (1)(b) above was under the trusts of the charity vested in, or in the holder of any office connected with, ILEA, that power shall on that date vest in, or in the holder of the corresponding office connected with, the inner London council concerned.
(3)Where in the case of any such power vested in the holder of any office connected with ILEA there is no corresponding office connected with the inner London council concerned, that power shall on that date vest in the holder of such other office connected with that council as the Charity Commissioners may with the consent of that council and the office-holder concerned appoint.
(4)Where immediately before that date—
(a)any property is held exclusively for charitable purposes by ILEA as sole trustee; and

(6)References above in this section to a power with respect to a charity shall not include references to any power of any person by virtue of being a charity trustee of that charity; but where under the trusts of any charity the charity trustees immediately before the abolition date included ILEA or the holder of an office connected with ILEA then, as from that date, those trustees shall instead include—
(a)such of the inner London councils;
(b)the holder of such office connected with such of those councils; or

as the Charity Commissioners may appoint.
(7)If in any case an appointment is not made by the Charity Commissioners for the purposes of any of subsections (3) to (6) above before the abolition date, the London Residuary Body shall be treated as having been so appointed pending the making of such an appointment by those Commissioners; but an appointment made by those Commissioners after the abolition date must be made before the end of the period of two years beginning with that date.
