Proper format for citing Act?
Can I just quickly ask what is the proper format quoting a British legal instrument like for instance the 1920 Census Act: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Geo5/10-11/41 with use of one Zotero's Haravrd styles?
In particular, I wanted to know how I handle the entry fields so the record is properly managed by the Zotero:

Generally speaking, for acts I would suggest only using the Title and Date Enacted fields and including all relevant information there.
It is not common to include the (Regnal. 10_and_11_Geo_5) in references of UK statutes, so I'd suggest something like:
Title: Census Act
Date: 1920
In the most common Harvard styles as well as the OSCOLA guidelines, the additional citation info (Regnal. 10_and_11_Geo_5) is never cited.
