These acts and deliberations remain applicable, within the scope that was theirs before 1 January 2016, until they are replaced, for those that are regulatory in nature, by new acts and deliberations applicable to the territory of the new collectivity. These new acts and deliberations will come into force no later than 1st January 2021.
