It prevents confusion by formally removing old, superseded rules so that only current regulations apply. Without this cleanup, someone might accidentally try to enforce a 1938 rule that no longer reflects current practice."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/c1973l00276","history":"/api/acts/c1973l00276/history","analysis":"/api/acts/c1973l00276/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/c1973l00276/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/c1973l00276/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/c1973l00276/documents"}}
