    (1) Section 3 of the Support Law of June 24, 1937, P.L. 2045, 62 P.S. § 1973, insofar as it provides a procedure to enforce the liability of relatives for the support of an indigent person; and

    (2) Section 4 of Act 1996-20, 23 Pa.C.S. § 4342, insofar as it provides that long arm jurisdiction shall be used in preference to proceedings under Part VIII-A relating to intrastate family support actions;
