Legislation does something (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

acts

This clue is a double definition.

'legislation' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'does something' is the second definition.
('act' can be a synonym of 'do something')

(Other definitions for acts that I've seen before include "appears (eight in a series may be found)" , "Deeds; NT book" , "individual performers in a show" , "Dramatic parts" , "Major divisions of play" .)
