Rather than changing how the range operates, it simply removes outdated rules that were no longer needed, likely because newer Defence policies or different legislative arrangements had superseded them."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/williamstown-rifle-range-regulations-repeal","history":"/api/acts/williamstown-rifle-range-regulations-repeal/history","analysis":"/api/acts/williamstown-rifle-range-regulations-repeal/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/williamstown-rifle-range-regulations-repeal/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/williamstown-rifle-range-regulations-repeal/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/williamstown-rifle-range-regulations-repeal/documents"}}
