Any regulation in effect when this Act takes effect that implements a function transferred to another Department or Office under Section 1 of this Act continues in effect, but any reference in any regulation to the Department from which the function was transferred must be treated as referring to the Department to which the function is transferred. The transfer of a function under this Act does not affect any right of a party to any legal proceeding begun before this Act took effect. Sec. 4. Any responsibility or right granted by law, ordinance regulation, delegation of authority, contract, or other document to the Department of Economic Development in connection with the Small Business Reserve Program is transferred to the Department of General Services. 2005 L.M.C., ch. 3, § 3, amended by 2009 L.M.C., ch. 9, § 2, and further amended by 2012 L.M.C., ch. 20, § 1, states: The Office of Legislative Oversight must begin a review of the Program one year after its implementation begins and must report to the Council about the effectiveness of the Program. |
