The essential elements are: Short Title of Act Year (Jurisdiction). For example: Mental Health Act 1990 (NSW). Copyright Act 1968 (Cwlth). If have used a section within the Act, then include a pinpoint reference, eg: Criminal Code (WA), s. 348. If legislation is obtained from an electronic database, you will need to include a retrieved statement for electronic sources.
