It matters because it cleans up outdated legislation, likely because bird protection in this territory is now covered by national environmental laws (such as the *Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999*)."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/migratory-birds-repeal-ordinance-2002-coral-sea-islands","history":"/api/acts/migratory-birds-repeal-ordinance-2002-coral-sea-islands/history","analysis":"/api/acts/migratory-birds-repeal-ordinance-2002-coral-sea-islands/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/migratory-birds-repeal-ordinance-2002-coral-sea-islands/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/migratory-birds-repeal-ordinance-2002-coral-sea-islands/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/migratory-birds-repeal-ordinance-2002-coral-sea-islands/documents"}}
