Notwithstanding the Act respecting the consolidation of the statutes and regulations, the text tabled in the National Assembly on 14 December 1979, as Sessional Papers, No. 432, has force of law from 1 September 1979, under the designation, “Revised Statutes of Québec” or “Revised Statutes of Québec, 1977”.
The English text of the statutes replaced by the Revised Statutes is considered not to have been repealed by the proclamation made by order in council 2046-79.
