Talk:Bill (proposed law)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There seems to be a large amount of information on the progress of Bills in the Act of Parliament article. Is there any reason this shouldn't become a redirect? That is, is there some relevant usage of Bill that isn't, and couldn't be, covered by the Act article? If there is no immediate response, I'll make the necessary changes when I get round to it
- "What links here", in case the feature becomes disabled again: Bill (disambiguation page), Canada Line-item veto Act of Parliament Slavery and State's Rights Nude beach Omnibus spending bill Thomas Bracken
- Bill is a disambiguation, so there are probably many more that should be linked to here.

So unless anyone says differently i'm gonna take over for IMSoP and make this a redirect tomorrow. --Dhuss 03:32, 20 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- If you change it to a redirect, the information needs to be merged, because Act of Parliament has no info on the US procedure. Also, if it IS redirected, it should probably be renamed to something that can encompass both US bills and Acts of Parliament, as Act of Parliament is a completely inappropriate name for US bills.

[edit] Duplicate
Are the final three paragraphs identical to the three preceding ones or is this some sort of edit in progress? Please remove if it is duplicate. Jamesmusik 22:33, 14 July 2005 (UTC) I removed the duplicate myself, keeping the edit lowest on the page. James 17:53, July 16, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] US stuff
I think having a section on just the US is a bit wrong. How about providing links to articles which discuss the process for as many countries as possible? E.g. to Parliament of New Zealand#Passage of legislation. --Midnighttonight 01:32, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
- The US info is a repeat from United States Congress#Legislative procedure.--Midnighttonight 05:02, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
