Can anyone in plain language explain to me what the following means from the Housing Act (2004) Section 257 Paragraph 5? As I don't really understand what it means when it mentions the 'status' of any flat

"5)The fact that this section applies to a converted block of flats (with the result that it is a house in multiple occupation under section 254(1)(e)), does not affect the status of any flat in the block as a house in multiple occupation."
