(Answer) (Category) The Reality Sculptors "Faq-O-Matic" : (Category) "Laws We'd Like To See" :
Cancellations and Ammendments
No ammendnents can be made to rules.
Unusable rules can be cancelled even before their expirations.
Cancellation shall be made by a "cancellation law".
Cancellation laws shall only state the one single law they cancel, the proportion of population that voted "Yeah" for that law, and cancelation date.
There shall be no conditions, nor any strings attached to cancellation laws.
Cancellation laws shall pass only if the proportion of population that votes for them is 5% larger or more than the proportion of the population that approved the original law, now under threat of cancelation.

(Minor typo corrections to above...)

This is a good suggestion. We can see a great example of this in the US Constitution, Article XXI, Section 1, which simply states:

The eighteenth article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States is hereby repealed.

Very simple, and right to the point. This also ties in well with the "clearly written" suggestions in other parts of this section.
