Coming into force (also called enforcement or enactment) refers to the
date and process by which
legislation, or part of legislation, comes to have
legal force and effect. It is important to note that the process whereby a
Bill becomes an
Act is an entirely different process from that of bringing the Act into force. A Bill, even though passed by
law makers, which does not amount to an Act cannot be of any force and effect. Of course it may be that a country's law determines that on being passed by the law makers, a Bill becomes an Act without further ado. However, more usually, the process whereby a Bill becomes an Act is well prescribed in general
constitutional or
administrative legislation. This process varies from country to country, and from
political system to political system
