For most people, this removes defunct red tape without changing how modern phone services work.\n\n**Why it matters**\nThis is a “housekeeping” measure that tidies up Commonwealth law by removing regulations that are no longer needed, reducing regulatory clutter without creating new obligations."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/radio-telephone-exchange-service-regulations-repeal","history":"/api/acts/radio-telephone-exchange-service-regulations-repeal/history","analysis":"/api/acts/radio-telephone-exchange-service-regulations-repeal/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/radio-telephone-exchange-service-regulations-repeal/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/radio-telephone-exchange-service-regulations-repeal/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/radio-telephone-exchange-service-regulations-repeal/documents"}}
