This part of the law explains how some old rules are being removed or changed. You need to know that:

The government is getting rid of some old laws. These old laws are listed in Part 1 of Schedule 3.

Some old regulations and Orders in Council are also being cancelled. You can find these in Part 2 of Schedule 3.

There’s a special notice about milk packaging from 1986 that’s being cancelled too.

The law also makes some changes to other existing laws. You can find these changes in the Acts that are mentioned.

Some parts of this section have been removed over time. These removed parts used to talk about other changes, but they’re not part of the law anymore.
