Anything (including legal proceedings) which, at the time when that transfer takes effect, is in the process of being done by or in relation to the Strathclyde Passenger Transport Authority or the Strathclyde Passenger Transport Executive may, so far as it relates to any function transferred, be continued by the Scottish Ministers.

Anything done (or having effect as if done) by or in relation to the Strathclyde Passenger Transport Authority or the Strathclyde Passenger Transport Executive for the purposes of or in connection with any function transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of this Order shall, if in force at the time when that transfer takes effect, have effect as if done by the Scottish Ministers in so far as that is required for continuing its effect after that time.
