These older rules governed how munitions (weapons and ammunition) were supplied, likely created in the lead-up to World War II or during the war period.\n\n**Who it affects:**\n- Anyone still formally subject to the 1936–1937 munitions regulations (primarily government defence contractors and suppliers)\n- Defence production officials\n\n**Why it matters:**\n- It cleans up the law books by removing obsolete wartime regulations that are no longer needed in 1956\n- It simplifies compliance for defence suppliers who no longer need to follow these specific 20-year-old rules"}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/munitions-supply-regulations-repeal","history":"/api/acts/munitions-supply-regulations-repeal/history","analysis":"/api/acts/munitions-supply-regulations-repeal/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/munitions-supply-regulations-repeal/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/munitions-supply-regulations-repeal/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/munitions-supply-regulations-repeal/documents"}}
