These old rules covered employment conditions, qualifications, medical standards, and conduct for ship masters (captains) and seamen.\n\n**Who it affects**\n\nShipping companies, vessel operators, and maritime workers (masters and crew) who were covered by the 1963 regulations.\n\n**Why it matters**\n\nIt removes outdated maritime workplace regulations that had been repeatedly patched over three decades, clearing the way for a new regulatory framework to take effect. The repeal happened on 1 July 1993."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/navigation-master-and-seamen-regulations-repeal","history":"/api/acts/navigation-master-and-seamen-regulations-repeal/history","analysis":"/api/acts/navigation-master-and-seamen-regulations-repeal/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/navigation-master-and-seamen-regulations-repeal/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/navigation-master-and-seamen-regulations-repeal/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/navigation-master-and-seamen-regulations-repeal/documents"}}
