Public Works Act 1981

General provisions

232: Minister may execute instruments

You could also call this:

“This rule about the Minister signing documents was removed from the law”

This law used to be about the Minister’s power to sign official documents, but it no longer exists. The government removed this rule on 1 April 1988. When a law is removed like this, we say it has been ‘repealed’. This means you don’t need to worry about this rule anymore because it’s not part of the law now.
