statement of principle

statement of principle. In legislative drafting, a sentence or paragraph that explains the legislature’s purpose in passing a statute. • Although a statement of principle often resembles a preamble (usu. both do not appear in a single statute), it differs in that it typically appears in a numbered section of the statute.
