Provisions in Force - Explanatory Notes
Office of Legislative Counsel
Ministry of Attorney General
Province of British Columbia
The following document lists all statutes affected in 2001 by the Legislative Assembly. In this document:
-
Titles:
If the title of the Bill appears in full, ie: "ADULT GUARDIANSHIP STATUTES AMENDMENT
ACT, 2001", 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, 2001 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.
