第二条（第二条の規定による改正に伴う経過措置）
The certification of a motor vehicle disassembly maintenance business made, before the day on which this Act comes into effect (referred to as the "Effective Date" in the following paragraph and paragraph (3)), under Article 78, paragraph (1) of the Road Transport Vehicle Act before amendment by the provisions of Article 2 (referred to as the "Former Act" in that paragraph) is deemed, as provided by Order of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, to be a certification of a motor vehicle specified maintenance business made based on the provisions of Article 78, paragraph (1) of the Road Transport Vehicle Act as amended by the provisions of Article 2 (referred to as the "New Act" in the following paragraph and paragraph (3)). The same applies to an application for that certification.
A person who, at the time of enforcement of this Act, is actually operating a business equivalent to the motor vehicle specified maintenance business prescribed in Article 77, paragraph (1) of the New Act (limited to a business that does not carry out maintenance or modification, as specified by Order of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, performed by removing a motor, power transmission equipment, running gear, steering equipment, braking equipment, shock-absorbing equipment or coupling equipment) may, until the day on which four years have elapsed from the Effective Date, notwithstanding Article 78, paragraph (1) of the New Act, continue to operate that business as provided by Order of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. The same applies, where that person has applied for the certification under that paragraph within that period, until the day on which the person receives notice that the certification has been granted or will not be granted.
