(a) at the time it was done the direction complied with the limit set under a previous Appropriation Act, or
(b) that direction would have complied with the limit then in force if that limit had been been increased as mentioned in the note in question for the period ending with 27th February 2003.

(b) where the limit so set has not, by 12th August following the giving of the direction, been increased by a subsequent Appropriation Act or has by that date been so increased by less than the excess, shall be deemed to have authorised appropriations in aid only up to that limit or, as the case may be, up to that limit as so increased.
