Removing these regulations means the old specific restrictions are gone, though replacement protections may exist under different laws."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/air-navigation-aerodrome-curfew-regulations-repeal","history":"/api/acts/air-navigation-aerodrome-curfew-regulations-repeal/history","analysis":"/api/acts/air-navigation-aerodrome-curfew-regulations-repeal/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/air-navigation-aerodrome-curfew-regulations-repeal/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/air-navigation-aerodrome-curfew-regulations-repeal/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/air-navigation-aerodrome-curfew-regulations-repeal/documents"}}
