Section 1 of 765 Ill. Comp. Stat. 740 establishes the official short title of this Illinois law as the 'Tenant Utility Payment Disclosure Act.' This provision is purely a naming clause, giving the statute a recognizable title that can be used when referencing or citing it in legal, regulatory, or everyday contexts. It does not itself impose any requirements, prohibitions, or rights — those are found in the Act's substantive sections.
