Old law to new law

Know the old section number? Find the closest section in the four Labour Codes, for 382 sections of 14 old Acts.

This is our reading, not an official table

The Government has not published a table like this that we could find. We matched each old section to the new section on the same subject, and a lawyer has not checked the result. Closest does not mean the same: limits, conditions and wording may have changed, and one old section may be spread across several new ones. Always read the new section itself.

The table leaves out sections with no useful match, and the smaller Acts the Codes also replaced.
