Minor variations follow a faster approval process with fewer consultation requirements than major changes.\n\n**Who it affects:**\nPrimarily telecommunications companies (carriers and service providers) who must comply with numbering rules. Ultimately, this affects anyone with an Australian phone number, as it governs how numbers are assigned and managed."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/telecommunications-numbering-plan-minor-variation-declaration-2006","history":"/api/acts/telecommunications-numbering-plan-minor-variation-declaration-2006/history","analysis":"/api/acts/telecommunications-numbering-plan-minor-variation-declaration-2006/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/telecommunications-numbering-plan-minor-variation-declaration-2006/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/telecommunications-numbering-plan-minor-variation-declaration-2006/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/telecommunications-numbering-plan-minor-variation-declaration-2006/documents"}}
