This is purely a **tidying-up exercise**—it doesn't create new rules or change how the law operates day-to-day, it simply removes obsolete provisions from the statute books."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/navigation-miscellaneous-repeal-regulations-2006","history":"/api/acts/navigation-miscellaneous-repeal-regulations-2006/history","analysis":"/api/acts/navigation-miscellaneous-repeal-regulations-2006/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/navigation-miscellaneous-repeal-regulations-2006/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/navigation-miscellaneous-repeal-regulations-2006/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/navigation-miscellaneous-repeal-regulations-2006/documents"}}
