(3) An order under this section may make such modifications, in the application to the rural district councils comprised in the county, of the provisions of any Order in Council made under Part VI. of the principal Act, or of the Order confirmed by the Local Government Board (Ireland) Provisional Order Confirmation (No. 3) Act, 1901, as the Local Government Board may consider necessary for giving full effect to the order under this section.

(5) If, by reason of anything done in pursuance of this section, the duties of any officer of a county or district council are increased or diminished, the officer shall be bound to perform those duties, and shall receive such increase or diminution of remuneration, in proportion to the increase or diminution of his duties, as the Local Government Board may determine, subject nevertheless, in the case of diminution, to such compensation as is provided by subsection (19) of section one hundred and fifteen of the principal Act, and that subsection shall apply accordingly to any such officer in like manner as it applies to existing officers affected by the principal Act.
