This document formally triggers the first seven schedules of the aged care amendments, meaning those specific changes to aged care rules, funding, or administration became legally active on 31 May 2006."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/aged-care-amendment-2005-measures-no-1-act-2006-proclamation","history":"/api/acts/aged-care-amendment-2005-measures-no-1-act-2006-proclamation/history","analysis":"/api/acts/aged-care-amendment-2005-measures-no-1-act-2006-proclamation/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/aged-care-amendment-2005-measures-no-1-act-2006-proclamation/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/aged-care-amendment-2005-measures-no-1-act-2006-proclamation/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/aged-care-amendment-2005-measures-no-1-act-2006-proclamation/documents"}}
