  • (2) Any order which has effect by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) above shall so have effect as if any reference in that order to a particular water authority were a reference to that authority’s successor company; and nothing in that sub-paragraph shall affect the exercise in relation to such an order of the power conferred by section 191 of this Act or prejudice the effect, in relation to any such order of—
