230: Relationship between regulations relating to hazardous substances under this Act and Resource Management Act 1991
or “How hazardous substance rules interact with existing resource consents”
You could also call this:

“This provision removes older health and safety laws and regulations”

This part of the law explains that some older laws and rules are being taken away. The Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992 is no longer in use. The Machinery Act 1950 is also no longer in use. Some other rules are being removed too. These include the Health and Safety in Employment (Prescribed Matters) Regulations 2003, the Machinery (Exclusion of Some Pressure Equipment, Cranes, and Passenger Ropeways) Order 1999, and the Noxious Substances Regulations 1954. When a law or rule is taken away like this, it means you don’t have to follow it anymore because it’s not part of the current laws.
