List of acts of the Parliament of England from 1703

This text provides information about acts of the Parliament of England for the year 1703. It notes that acts passed during this period are listed separately from those of later years, as the Parliament of Great Britain and the United Kingdom came into existence after 1707 and 1801, respectively. The text also references lists of acts for Scotland, Ireland, and devolved parliaments in the UK. Medieval statutes not considered acts of Parliament are covered elsewhere.

Acts are cited using chapter numbers and the years of the monarch's reign during which they were passed, such as "39 & 40 Geo. 3. c. 67." Modern citations use Arabic numerals instead of Roman numerals. Acts of the Parliament of England did not originally have short titles but were later assigned them by UK Parliament acts like the Short Titles Act 1896.


The summary covers the structure of citations, the use of short titles, and details about the parliamentary session under Queen Anne. It also notes that while sections for public and private acts are present, none are listed in this specific text.
