However, this document itself doesn't set any new rules or tax rates—it simply removes the old regulations. If new rules were needed, they would have been set in a separate instrument (which may have been made simultaneously, though not shown here).\n\n**Why it matters:**\n\nRepealing old regulations is a normal housekeeping measure to prevent outdated rules from cluttering the law. It ensures that only current regulations apply to wool producers or dealers subject to this tax."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/c1975l00159","history":"/api/acts/c1975l00159/history","analysis":"/api/acts/c1975l00159/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/c1975l00159/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/c1975l00159/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/c1975l00159/documents"}}
