This is a
list of acts of the Parliament of England for the year 1553
.
For acts passed during the period 1707?1800, see the
list of acts of the Parliament of Great Britain
. See also the
list of acts of the Parliament of Scotland
, and the
list of acts of the Parliament of Ireland
.
For acts passed from 1801 onwards, see the
list of acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom
. For acts of the devolved parliaments and assemblies in the United Kingdom, see the
list of acts of the Scottish Parliament
, the
list of acts of the Northern Ireland Assembly
, and the
list of acts and measures of Senedd Cymru
; see also the
list of acts of the Parliament of Northern Ireland
.
For medieval statutes, etc. that are not considered to be acts of Parliament, see the
list of English statutes
.
See also the
List of ordinances and acts of the Parliament of England, 1642?1660
for ordinances and acts passed by the
Long Parliament
and other bodies without
royal assent
, and which were not considered to be valid legislation following the
Restoration
in 1660.
The number shown after each act's title is its chapter number. Acts are cited using this number, preceded by the years of the reign during which the relevant
parliamentary session
was held; thus the
Union with Ireland Act 1800
is cited as "39 & 40 Geo. 3. c. 67", meaning the 67th act passed during the session that started in the 39th year of the reign of George III and which finished in the 40th year of that reign. Note that the modern convention is to use
Arabic numerals
in citations (thus "41 Geo. 3" rather than "41 Geo. III"). Acts of the last session of the Parliament of Great Britain and the first session of the Parliament of the United Kingdom are both cited as "41 Geo. 3".
Acts passed by the Parliament of England did not have a
short title
; however, some of these acts have subsequently been given a short title by acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom (such as the
Short Titles Act 1896
).
Acts passed by the Parliament of England were deemed to have come into effect on the first day of the session in which they were passed. Because of this, the years given in the list below may in fact be the year before a particular act was passed.
