What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The one thing the section does: it gives the Act a name to be cited by.

Nothing. The section is a single sentence and it does nothing else.

A short title section names the Act. It rescinds nothing, directs nobody and creates no duty. Section 2 is the operative section of this Act.
