The repeal likely happened because sight testing standards were moved into modern medical fitness rules or general occupational health laws, making these specific apprenticeship eye test regulations unnecessary."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/navigation-sight-tests-for-apprentices-regulations-repeal","history":"/api/acts/navigation-sight-tests-for-apprentices-regulations-repeal/history","analysis":"/api/acts/navigation-sight-tests-for-apprentices-regulations-repeal/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/navigation-sight-tests-for-apprentices-regulations-repeal/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/navigation-sight-tests-for-apprentices-regulations-repeal/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/navigation-sight-tests-for-apprentices-regulations-repeal/documents"}}
