§ 6-901. Uniformity of application and construction.
In applying and construing this Uniform Act consideration must be given to the need to promote uniformity of the law with respect to its subject matter among states that enact it. (69 Del. Laws, c. 238, § 1; 75 Del. Laws, c. 64, § 1.)
If any provision of this chapter or its application to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the invalidity does not affect other provisions or applications of this chapter which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this chapter are severable. (75 Del. Laws, c. 64, § 1.)
This chapter takes effect July 1, 2006, and only in the event the Office of Child Support Enforcement of the federal Department of Health and Human Services grants an exemption from the mandatory law and procedure contained in § 466(f) of the Social Security Act [42 U.S.C. § 466(f)]. Any determination of support or non-support made under the law of this State prior to July 1, 2006 remains in force and effect. (75 Del. Laws, c. 64, § 1.)
