456: Social Welfare (Reciprocity Agreements, and New Zealand Artificial Limb Service) Act 1990 repealed

You could also call this:

“Old law about helping people in other countries and making artificial limbs has been cancelled”

The Social Welfare (Reciprocity Agreements, and New Zealand Artificial Limb Service) Act 1990 is no longer in effect. This means the government has decided to remove this law. However, some parts of the old law are still important. These parts are about the Artificial Limb Service, and they have been moved to a new law called the Artificial Limb Service Act 2018.

When a law is removed, sometimes there are other rules that were made because of that law. These rules are usually removed too. In this case, most of the rules made under the old law are also being removed. But there are some exceptions. Some orders (which are a type of rule) are being kept. You can find out which ones are being kept by looking at Schedule 1 of the new law.
