Despite the revocations made by regulations 2, 5, and 6, Article 14B of the Order of 1972 continues to have effect on and after exit day in relation to any qualifying EEA expenditure which was incurred on or after 10 May 2012 and before 27 December 2013 and was not reimbursed under that Article before exit day.

In Article 14B as saved by this regulation, paragraph (5) is to be read as if for the words “circumstances where Article 20 or 27(3) of Regulation (EC) No. 883/2004 applies” there were substituted “circumstances where, immediately before exit day, Article 20 or 27(3) of Regulation (EC) No. 883/2004 would have applied”.

The definition of “Regulation (EC) No. 883/2004” in Article 2(2) of the Order of 1972 continues to have effect for the purposes of Article 14B as saved by this regulation, but as if in that definition there were inserted at the end “as that Regulation had effect immediately before exit day”.

In Article 14B as saved by this regulation “EEA state” has the meaning given by Schedule 1 to the Interpretation Act 197815.

In this regulation “qualifying EEA expenditure” has the same meaning as in Article 14B of the Order of 1972 as that Article had effect immediately before exit day.
