36.Subsection (6) specifies that section 1 applies to an enactment passed or made before the end of the session in which the Act is passed and to an instrument or document issued before the passing of the Act. Subsection (7) provides that section 1 applies only to certain sections of the CRCA 2005, namely section 5(2)(b) (Commissioners’ initial functions), section 9 (ancillary powers), section 25A(2) (certificates of debt) and sections 31 (obstruction) and 33 (powers of arrest), other than in its application of an offence under section 30 (impersonation). It is unnecessary to apply all provisions of the CRCA 2005 to the Secretary of State, as a number of provisions of that Act are either already dealt with in this Act (such as the provisions concerning confidentiality of information similar to sections 17 to 23 CRCA 2005) or are not required given the common law powers of the Secretary of State (for example the power to make rewards in section 26 CRCA 2005 would already be available to the Secretary of State under the common law).
