PARENTAGE ACT 2004 - SECT 3

Dictionary

The dictionary at the end of this Act is part of this Act.

Note 1     The dictionary at the end of this Act defines certain terms used in this Act, and includes references ("signpost definitions") to other terms defined elsewhere in this Act.

    For example, the signpost definition ‘"parentage order", for division 2.5 (Parentage orders)—see section 23.' means that the term ‘parentage order' is defined in that section.

Note 2     A definition in the dictionary (including a signpost definition) applies to the entire Act unless the definition, or another provision of the Act, provides otherwise or the contrary intention otherwise appears (see Legislation Act

, s 155 and s 156 (1)).
