10.—(1) The amendment of section 9(2) of the Immigration Act 1971 (further provisions about the common travel area) made by section 2(3) of the 2020 Act does not affect the operation in relation to an Irish citizen of any subordinate legislation which was made under section 9(2) of the Immigration Act 1971 before commencement day for the purposes of the implementation of Article 32(1)(b) of the withdrawal agreement, Article 31(1)(b) of the EEA EFTA separation agreement or Article 26a(1)(b) of the Swiss citizens’ rights agreement.
(2) In paragraph (1), “EEA EFTA separation agreement” and “Swiss citizens’ rights agreement” have the same meanings as in the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020 (see section 39(1) of that Act).
11. The repeal by paragraphs 5 and 6 of Schedule 1 to the 2020 Act of the rights, powers, liabilities obligations, restrictions, remedies and procedures to which those paragraphs apply does not prevent those rights, powers, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, remedies and procedures being recognised and available in domestic law in respect of a time before commencement day.
