Transitional.
9.
In general the new kules would apply to all applications on which a decision is taken after 1 January 1983, but the transitional arrangements made in the present Rules (HC 394) for persons who applied before
14 November 1979, or who had been admitted before 1 March 1980 would be
retained where necessary.
An application for leave to remain by a person
who was admitted under the present Rules as a businessman, self-employed person or person of independent means would be decided under the provisions
of those Rules.
