Business activities this Act regulates

We haven't mapped this Act to specific MSIC business activities. Many federal Acts are general statutes (company law, employment, taxation, procedure) that apply across business activities generally rather than regulating one industry. Where an Act governs a specific licence, the regulated activities appear here.
