The following document lists all statutes affected by the 2000 Session
of the Legislative Assembly. In this document:
-
Titles:
If the title of the Bill appears in full, ie: "FORESTS STATUTES
AMENDMENT ACT, 2000", then the information that follows refers
to the entire Bill;
If the title does not include the word "Act", ie: "FOREST",
it indicates that the ensuing information refers only to the portion
of a Bill affecting the referenced Act, and that the title of the
Bill in which that amendment appears may be quite different (as in
a consequential amendment).
- SBC = Statutes of British Columbia; RS = Revised
Statutes of British Columbia, 1996.
- Type:
- amendment means an amendment to one or more pieces of existing
legislation.
- consequential amendment means that a particular Act was
amended as a result of changes to - or the enactment of - another
Act.
- new Act means the Act is a complete new Act on a particular
subject, or a repeal and replacement of earlier legislation, rather
than an amendment to existing legislation. A new Act may also contain
amendments to existing statutes that are consequentially affected
by it.
- Acts such as the Budget Measures Implementation Act, 2000
only affect other statutes. In these cases the "Type"
is listed as "amends other Acts". For each statute affected
by such an amendment Act there is included a reference to the title
of the relevant amendment Act.
- Relevant Sections refers to the sections of a new Act or amending
Act that affect a particular piece of legislation, NOT the existing
sections of the particular legislation which are affected by the subject
Act.
- How effective:
- The Commencement section (usually the last section of a Bill)
states whether the Bill is effective on a particular date or whether
it comes into force by regulation of the Lieutenant Governor in
Council. If a Bill does not have a Commencement section, it comes
into force on the date of Royal Assent (R/A). IF a provision requires
a regulation (Reg) and IF a regulation has been made the information
is found under the "In force dates" heading.
- In force dates:
- In cases where the Bill was effective on Royal Assent or on a
set date, that date is listed here. In cases where provisions are
to be brought into force by regulation, if a regulation has been
passed its number appears in square brackets followed by the relevant
date. The Interpretation Act states that the title of an
Act and its commencement provision (if any - usually the last section
of an Act) come into force on Royal Assent.
- Repeals:
- Acts which are repealed are shown with the Act title, followed
by the word REPEAL and the citation [year and chapter] for the repealed
Act.
