Statute overview

About this statute

This section amends section 1 of the Statistics Act by replacing and adding definitions. This provision amends the Statistics Act by changing one definition and adding two new definitions. This section updates several definitions used in the Act, including the National Statistics System, other organisation, other statistics, prescribed, return, SASQAF, and this Act. This section inserts a new section after section 1 of the principal Act, titled “Conflict with other legislation.” If this Act conflicts with another law on matters it covers, this Act prevails, except for the Constitution or an Act that expressly amends this Act.
