No it's not, that means that the fact that this particular act has been deemed inapplicable will not affect any future legislation the government wishes to pass.
Basically it means that there is now no law against consentual sex with underage girls.

Yes, normal rape laws will still apply. But my point is it opens up grooming and sex with underage girls by men of any age, so long as they convince the girl to do so and it is consentual.
