The members' initial terms were expiring on 9 July 1939, and these regulations keep them in office until 31 July 1939 while longer-term arrangements were being finalized. It ensures continuity of the Board's functions without requiring new appointments."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/wool-publicity-and-research-board-regulations","history":"/api/acts/wool-publicity-and-research-board-regulations/history","analysis":"/api/acts/wool-publicity-and-research-board-regulations/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/wool-publicity-and-research-board-regulations/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/wool-publicity-and-research-board-regulations/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/wool-publicity-and-research-board-regulations/documents"}}
