69D: Meaning of new employer
or “This explains who counts as your new boss when your job changes hands”
You could also call this:

“This rule explained who counts as a person connected to a business for employee protection during changes.”

This section of the law, called ‘Associated person’, used to be part of the Employment Relations Act 2000. It was about how employment continues when a business changes. However, this section no longer exists. It was removed on 6 May 2019 by another law that changed the Employment Relations Act.
