A question about a maturing ISA. Does it count towards this years allowance?

Hi There and thanks for looking.
I have an ISA maturing in a few days with Close Brothers and I have the option of opening a new ISA with them. It has these two lines in the declaration that I need to agree to which I find unusual. d. in particular.
c. I have not subscribed/ made payments, and will not subscribe/make payments, more than the overall subscription/payment limit in total to a cash ISA, a stocks and shares ISA, an innovative finance ISA, and a lifetime ISA in the same tax year;
d. I have not subscribed and will not subscribe to another cash ISA in the same tax year that I subscribed to this cash ISA;
If I open this ISA and just transfer the funds across am I then unable to open another ISA and use this years allowance? I always thought that transferring the funds into another ISA didn't effect the current years allowance but this is saying differently.
Any help greatly appreciated.

No.
Anything in previous tax year(s) is old money and as long as it stays under an ISA wrapper you can transfer it as you wish and contribute a further £20,000 of new money.

c and d don't in any way relate to your maturing ISA. They only relate to "new" money.2
