Meanwhile, it keeps three older sections from the previous Spirits Act (1906-1923) running until that same date. **Who it affects:** Distillers, importers, and regulators involved in the spirits trade who would otherwise have had to comply with the new 1932 rules immediately. **Why it matters:** It's essentially a \"pause button\" that extends the life of old regulations while giving the industry more time before the new rules kick in."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/spirits-act-1933","history":"/api/acts/spirits-act-1933/history","analysis":"/api/acts/spirits-act-1933/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/spirits-act-1933/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/spirits-act-1933/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/spirits-act-1933/documents"}}
