(1) This item applies in relation to a person who was appointed to be an authorised officer, or a class of persons who were appointed to be authorised officers, under subsection 49(1) of old Part 2 of the AMLI Act if:

 (b) the appointment was in force immediately before the commencement time.
(2) The person, or each person included in the class of persons, is taken, at the commencement time, to have been duly authorised by the Secretary under subsection 291(1) of the new Export Control Act to be an authorised officer under that Act.
(3) For the purposes of subitem (2), the instrument appointing the person, or the class of persons including the person, under subsection 49(1) of old Part 2 of the AMLI Act continues in force after the commencement time as if it were an instrument of authorisation under subsection 291(1) of the new Export Control Act authorising the person, or each person in the class of persons, to be an authorised officer under that Act.
(4) The instrument of authorisation is taken to specify the functions and powers conferred on an authorised officer by Parts 2 and 3, and Division 2 of Part 11, of Chapter 10 of the new Export Control Act.
(5) The Secretary may vary the instrument of authorisation to replace a reference to an old Export Control Law, or a provision of an old Export Control Law, with a reference to the new Export Control Act or rules made under that Act or a provision of the new Export Control Act or rules made under that Act (as the case requires).
