Writing Question (relative clause)
Hi, I have a question in the writing sample as below.

"Once this formality has been dealt with, the new law, now called an Act of Parliament, can come into force."
Could I rephrase it this sentence like,
"Once this formality has been dealt with, the new law, (which is) now called an Act of Parliament, can come into force."?

Thank you for replying.
