1. “The entire enactment should be considered in determining the spirit or meaning, and intent must be gathered from the entire statute. Sections and acts in pari materia, that is, ‘in relation to the same matter subject or object,’ should be construed together. Stated differently, it is the rule that statutes relate to the same or similar subject matter or subject of law should, where a case calling for the application of both is presented, be read together as if they were a single statute, and both should be reconciled, harmonized and made to apply, and give meaning and effect, so as to render their contents operative and valid. Thus the various statutory provisions affecting a particular subject should be construed and applied so as to accomplish the manifest purpose of their enactment and give full force and effect to the legislative intent.”
