These regulations shall apply to all loans proposed to be raised pursuant to section 51 of the said Act where any proceedings in connection therewith have been taken, or are pending, or are in progress at the date of the making of these regulations, and whether any sanction of the Local Government Loans Board or any such consent of the Governor-General in Council is given before or after the making of these regulations.
