231: Repeals and revocations
or “This provision removes older health and safety laws and regulations”

You could also call this:

“Changes to other laws resulting from this Act”

This part of the law says that some changes need to be made to other laws. These changes are listed in Schedule 5 of this Act. You can find all the details of these changes in Schedule 5. When a law is changed because of a new law, we call this a ‘consequential amendment’. It’s like updating other rules to make sure they fit with the new one.
