(b) where that other Act has been repealed and re - enacted, with or without modifications, the reference shall be construed as including a reference to the re - enacted Act as originally enacted and as amended from time to time; and
(c) if a provision of the other Act is repealed and re - enacted (including where the other Act is repealed and re - enacted), with or without modifications, a reference to the repealed provision extends to any corresponding re - enacted provision (whether or not the re - enacted provision has the same number as the repealed provision).
