(2)Where there is, under any enactment (however framed or worded) contained in an Act passed before the relevant date, a power to create offences triable either on indictment or summarily by subordinate instrument, the maximum fine on summary conviction for such an offence may be expressed as a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum.
