It removes old obligations that are no longer needed, likely because industry self-regulation or newer laws now cover these services. It simplifies the rulebook for telcos by removing a redundant layer of regulation."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/telecommunications-service-provider-premium-services-revocation-determination-2013","history":"/api/acts/telecommunications-service-provider-premium-services-revocation-determination-2013/history","analysis":"/api/acts/telecommunications-service-provider-premium-services-revocation-determination-2013/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/telecommunications-service-provider-premium-services-revocation-determination-2013/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/telecommunications-service-provider-premium-services-revocation-determination-2013/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/telecommunications-service-provider-premium-services-revocation-determination-2013/documents"}}
