However, this doesn’t change how FOI requests currently work; it simply removes outdated rules from the books.\n\n**Why it matters:** This is legislative housekeeping. By repealing these two specific sets of 1980s-era regulations, the government cleans up the statute book without introducing any new rules or requirements. The entire content of this instrument is the repeal provision itself."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/freedom-of-information-addresses-regulations-repeal","history":"/api/acts/freedom-of-information-addresses-regulations-repeal/history","analysis":"/api/acts/freedom-of-information-addresses-regulations-repeal/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/freedom-of-information-addresses-regulations-repeal/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/freedom-of-information-addresses-regulations-repeal/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/freedom-of-information-addresses-regulations-repeal/documents"}}
