as may be duly provided for in any applicable law.


Explanation:
This is just another suggestion, as all of the answers above are ok.
"duly" is similar to in due time, quite a standard term in agreements and may imply "any moment in which some laws need to be observed".
All of the same, I think the entire sentence could help a bit more to check if this is the idea.

Explanation:
'in force from time to time' maybe not so apt and apposite here.
