Page move

[edit]

I undid the recent page move because under the common law Acts of Parliament were dated according to the date when the parliamentary session began, rather than when they received royal assent. This Act was actually passed in March 1585, but is listed under 1584: see the article Acts of Parliament (Commencement) Act 1793 for the explanation as to why.
