The Privacy Act 1993 is no longer in effect. You should know that it has been cancelled and replaced. This means that the old law about privacy is not used anymore.
The Privacy Regulations 1993 have also been cancelled. These were rules that helped explain how to follow the Privacy Act 1993. Since the act is gone, these rules are not used anymore either.
When a law is cancelled, we say it is “repealed”. When rules are cancelled, we say they are “revoked”. This is what has happened to the old Privacy Act and its regulations.
