the reference to the date he made his first withdrawal under subsection (3)(b) for the purpose of determining the period referred to in subsection (5) shall be read as a reference to the date he makes his first withdrawal after he opened the second SRS account; and
(ii)
for the purposes of subsection (1) and section 39(2)(o), both the first SRS account and the second SRS account shall be deemed to be the same account as if the first SRS account had never been closed.”;
