Identical Expressions to have same Meaning

Identical Expressions to have same Meaning [4 marks - 2017]

According to this principle, a word or phrase or expression appearing in a the same act should be given same meaning unless otherwise specifically mentioned in the act. Similarly, the statutes in pari-materia should also be dealt with the same way. For example the Limitation act and the Civil Procedure Code are the to acts in pari-materia. An expression ocurring in both the acts should be given same meaning.
