Schedule 8: Basic principles of national application set out in Part Two of OECD Guidelines
or “Key rules for protecting your personal information”

You could also call this:

“Changes to other laws that were made because of this Act, but are no longer part of it”

This part of the law is called ‘Consequential amendments’. It was part of the Privacy Act 2020, but it has been removed. The word ‘Repealed’ next to the title means it is no longer in use.

Consequential amendments are changes made to other laws because of a new law. These changes help make sure all the laws work together properly. However, since this section has been repealed, those changes are no longer part of the current law.

When a part of a law is repealed, it means it’s not active anymore. This could be because the changes were no longer needed, or because they were replaced by something else. The main Privacy Act 2020 is still in effect, but this specific schedule of amendments is not.
