Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

These regulations cancel (repeal) five earlier sets of rules that governed the Wool Research and Development Corporation.

What it does:

Wipes out all previous Wool R&D Corporation Regulations made in 1991 and 1992
Removes the specific legal framework that governed how the wool research body operated under the Primary Industries and Energy Research and Development Act 1989

Who it affects:

Australian wool growers and the wool industry
The Wool Research and Development Corporation itself
Researchers and bodies funded by wool industry levies

Why it matters: This repeal dismantles the regulatory structure for wool research and development. It likely reflects a major industry restructure—either winding up the Corporation, merging it with other bodies, or shifting its functions to a different legal model. For wool growers, this means the specific rules about how their research levies were managed and spent under these regulations no longer applied.
