English term

bill vs act vs law

English to Romanian Law/Patents Law (general)
Există vreo diferenţă între bill, act şi law în fragmentele de mai jos sau folosesc de fiecare dată "lege"?

Bill 52 was tabled one year ago by Pauline Marois’ former Parti Québecois government. Titled An Act Respecting End-of-Life Care, the bill allows those with “an incurable serious illness,” among other criteria, to request death by the hand of a doctor. The bill died on the order paper when Marois called an election in March, only to be reintroduced late last month — at the stage it had died — by the province’s new Liberal Premier Philippe Couillard. The bill was supported by all parties.

Canada’s Criminal Code currently prohibits euthanasia and assisted suicide. Human life advocates have accused the Quebec government of attempting to circumvent the Code by defining euthanasia in Bill 52 as “medical treatment.” The federal government stated last June that it is aware of the conflict between the bill and federal law, indicating that it may take action if the bill passes.

OK Am înţeles, exact ce aveam nevoie. Mulţumesc.
Liviu-Lee Roth Jun 8, 2014:
poate te ajută ca să înțelegi mai bine In legal terms, the differences between what a law is and what an act is does not differ much. The difference between a law and an act is that a law is any system of regulations (better known as laws), that govern, or rule the conduct of the people of society or community usually for protection. Whereas an act is a constitutional plan passed by Congress or any legislature that is referred to as a “bill” until ratified and becomes a law.
Before an act is a law, an act is technically called a bill. In order for an act to officially become law a legislature must vote on a bill. If the bill is voted in the bill then becomes an act, thus, becoming a law.

Adde, ai latitudinea să le numești toate trei, lege, decizie, act normativ, inclusiv proiect de lege (este draft până ajunge în Parlament sau Congress, apoi devine bill și dacă este enacted devine Act sau Law)
Oricare termen folosești, este corect și cititorul va înțelege despre ce este vorba.

Note from asker:
Deci Bill 52 este un proiect de lege? Nu cred... Quebec became the first Canadian province to legalize euthanasia today as the National Assembly voted 94 to 22 to allow doctors to kill their patients as “medical aid in dying.”
Peer comment(s):

neutral Liviu-Lee Roth : what about the Bill of Rights? Este proiect? În US, „proiect de lege” este „draft”
