the plan or notice provides for the dedication of land to public use as a reserve for any of the following purposes stated in former schedule 1—

cultural purposes;

watering-places; and

the dedication of the reserve does not relate to an application made under former section 31C before the commencement.

This section also applies to an adjustment notice lodged but not registered before the commencement to the extent—

the notice provides for the purpose for which a reserve is dedicated to change to a purpose mentioned in subsection (1)(a); and

the change does not relate to an application made under former section 31D(1)(b) before the commencement.

The plan of subdivision, dedication notice or adjustment notice may be registered under new section 31 or 31B.

New section 290J(2) does not apply in relation to the plan of subdivision.
