These old rules are redundant, so this is essentially a housekeeping measure to clean up legislation that has served its purpose.\n\n**Who is affected**\n\nThis is primarily administrative. It removes regulatory requirements that applied during the company's ownership transition but are no longer needed now that SMEC operates as a fully private entity."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/snowy-mountains-engineering-corporation-conversion-into-public-company-repeal-regulations-2010","history":"/api/acts/snowy-mountains-engineering-corporation-conversion-into-public-company-repeal-regulations-2010/history","analysis":"/api/acts/snowy-mountains-engineering-corporation-conversion-into-public-company-repeal-regulations-2010/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/snowy-mountains-engineering-corporation-conversion-into-public-company-repeal-regulations-2010/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/snowy-mountains-engineering-corporation-conversion-into-public-company-repeal-regulations-2010/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/snowy-mountains-engineering-corporation-conversion-into-public-company-repeal-regulations-2010/documents"}}
