(a) General. The title to a bill proposing to amend an existing statute begins "AN ACT Amending the act of" followed by a reference to the statute being amended, the word "entitled" and the title of the statute as it appears in the Laws of Pennsylvania or slip law enclosed in quotation marks.
(b) Use of short title. Except for amendments to the Consolidated Pennsylvania Statutes, the substitution of the official short title has not been attempted. If the new matter adequately covers the subject of the amendment, it is likely that the short title would be held to be sufficient.
