Wildlife Act 1953

Protection of wildlife - Wildlife sanctuaries

12: Mining privileges, coal mining rights, and public works

You could also call this:

"Rules about mining and public works that are no longer part of the law"

There is a part of the Wildlife Act 1953 called section 12. You can find it under 'Mining privileges, coal mining rights, and public works'. This section was repealed, which means it is no longer part of the law, and this happened on 1 April 1980. The Coal Mines Act 1979 was the law that repealed section 12. The Coal Mines Act 1979 is also known as 1979 No 21. This change occurred when section 268(2) of the Coal Mines Act 1979 came into effect.
