What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The one sentence the section contains: the two names by which the Act may be cited.

Nothing in the section is left out. It runs to a single sentence and does nothing else.

The section amends no older statute and requires nothing of anybody, so nothing recorded here depends on a document that is not indexed.
