Could somebody explain why the article's references to the act's effects are all in the past tense? Does the act not apply any longer?

The article appears to be a mixture of past and present tense (though primarily past tense). It probably needs a copy edit to make the tense use consistent, though I am unsure of which tense would be most appropriate. The Act is still in force, which would suggest present tense, but large sections of the Act have been repealed, which would suggest past tense. I will have to leave it for someone with greater writing skills than I to decide what to do. Road Wizard (talk) 01:11, 8 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
