# Repealed legislation

As you conduct your research, you will be alerted at various points that the particular piece of legislation you are viewing, has been repealed.

## Alert 1: Search results

When a user searches for a resource using the **search bar,** the results will contain a **repealed** alert in red. This alert aims to minimise the application of laws that are no longer in force, by the user.
