United Kingdom legislation
The Short Titles Act 1896 (59 & 60 Vict. c. 14) is an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom . It replaces the Short Titles Act 1892 .
This act was retained for the Republic of Ireland by section 2(2 )(a )[4] of, and part 4 of schedule 1 to, the Statute Law Revision Act 2007 . In that country, this act is one of the Short Titles Acts 1896 to 2007 .[5]
Section 1 and schedule 1 authorised the citation of 2,095 earlier acts by short titles .[6] The acts given short titles were passed between 1351 and 1893.[7] This act gave short titles to all public general acts passed since the Union of England and Scotland and then in force, which had not already been given short titles, except for those omitted from the Revised Edition of the Statutes by reason of their local or personal character.[8] [9]
In 1995, the Law Commission and the Scottish Law Commission recommended that section 1 and schedule 1 be repealed.[10]
Section 1 and schedule 1 were repealed by section 1(1 )[11] of, and part IV[12] of schedule 1 to, the Statute Law (Repeals) Act 1995 . Notwithstanding these repeals, such citations are still authorized by section 19(2 ) of the Interpretation Act 1978 .
Section 3 [ edit ]
This section was repealed by section 25(1 ) of, and schedule 3 to, the Interpretation Act 1978 . It is replaced by section 19(2 ) of that act.[13]
Section 4 [ edit ]
This section repealed the Short Titles Act 1892. It was in turn repealed by section 1 of, and the schedule to, the Statute Law Revision Act 1908 .
Schedule 1 [ edit ]
Section 1 of, and the schedule to, the Statute Law Revision Act 1908 repealed the entries relating to the following acts:
In column 3, against the act 5 Geo. 4 . c. 82, the words "The Clerk of the Parliaments Act 1824 " were substituted for the words "The Clerk of Parliaments Act 1824" by section 2 of, and paragraph 2(1 ) of schedule 3 to, the Statute Law (Repeals) Act 1978 . Paragraph 2(2 ) of Schedule 3 to the Statute Law (Repeals) Act 1978 provided that a corresponding change was to be made in any existing citation of the Clerk of Parliaments Act 1824 (5 Geo. 4 . c. 82), but without prejudice to the validity of any citation not so amended.
This schedule was amended for the Republic of Ireland by section 5 of the Statute Law Revision Act 2007 .
Schedule 2 [ edit ]
Section 2(1 ) and schedule 2 originally authorised the citation of 132 groups of acts by collective titles .[14]
