Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this does: This regulation deletes (repeals) the Federal Airports Corporation Regulations 1992 from Australian law.

Why it matters: In the 1990s, the Federal Airports Corporation (FAC) was the government body that owned and operated major airports like Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane. When the government decided to privatize these airports in 1997—leasing them to private operators instead of running them publicly—the FAC stopped operating airports. The specific rules written for the FAC were no longer needed. This regulation simply cleans up the statute books by removing those obsolete rules.

Who it affects: This is largely administrative housekeeping. It affects any remaining legal entities still winding down the Federal Airports Corporation's affairs, but has no direct impact on travelers, airport operators, or the general public beyond being part of the legal machinery of airport privatization.
