What this does

This regulation cancels (repeals) the Naval Charter Rates Regulations made in 1949.

Why it matters

The 1949 regulations had set rules about how much the Australian Navy paid to hire commercial ships (a process called “chartering”). This 1955 instrument wipes those old pricing rules off the books entirely.

The practical effect

The Navy no longer has to follow the specific rates or formulas set in 1949 when hiring vessels
Ship hire costs would now be handled through ordinary commercial negotiations rather than statutory price controls
This is a “housekeeping” measure that removes obsolete defence regulations that are no longer needed
