The rule about the re-enactment is described as applying in respect of a re-enactment made under what?

• A. under a later provision
• B. under an earlier provision
• C. under a current provision
• D. under no provision

Answer: (A)

The idea is that when a provision is re-enacted, its effect is understood through the form that comes after it—that is, under a later provision. This keeps interpretation in line with the most recent version of the law and ensures the re-enactment reflects the updated wording and intent. Applying the rule to an earlier provision would rely on obsolete text, and treating it as under a current provision or under no provision would misfit how re-enactments are meant to work. So the rule is described as applying to a re-enactment made under a later provision.
