That sentence, in plain words

Another set of rules moves from one law to the other. It goes in after part 119.

What this is about

Part 3 of this law moved a first set of rules. This moves a second set. Both now sit in the sea trash law.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
