Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This regulation is a housekeeping measure that scraps outdated passenger shipping rules dating back to 1924.

What it does:

Cancels seven old regulations made under the Navigation Act 1912 (the old law governing ships and shipping)
The repealed regulations date from 1924, 1933, 1949, 1951, 1963, 1965, and 1982
These older rules covered safety and conduct requirements for passenger vessels

Why it matters: This is a "clean-up" law. Rather than creating new rules, it removes obsolete (outdated) regulations from the statute books. This is common when old laws are replaced by modern legislation or simply become irrelevant over time. It helps keep the legal system tidy and prevents confusion about which rules are still in force.
