(b)under any lease—
(i)which is granted to or by a successor company at a time when it remains publicly owned, and
(ii)which is a lease of an asset which at any time before the creation of the lease was used by the Authority for the purposes of a trade carried on by the Authority and which was, when so used, owned by the Authority.
