The Medicines Control audit requires ready access to the current version of the listed legislation on the New Zealand Legislation website, and “an appropriate mechanism … for keeping up to date with amendments to the above legislation”, which can be achieved by subscribing to an RSS web feed. This page is that subscription: it is subscribed to the official document-version web feed for each required title on legislation.govt.nz, refreshes automatically every hour, and displays new amendment activity above without any further software. Each table row links directly to the current consolidated version of the legislation.
The same subscription is also republished as a standard Atom feed for any
feed reader, if ever wanted: /feed.xml
