Parliament dissolved at time of death of monarch[edit]

The text now says:

"The Act also provided that if Parliament was sitting at the time of the monarch's death, then it would be able to sit for a further six months unless dissolved by a new legitimate monarch.[8] If the monarch were to die and Parliament was not at that time sitting, then it would immediately convene.[9] These clauses remain in force today (without the six month time limit on Parliament's continued existence)."

This relates to sections 4 and 5. The following section 6 provided that a dissolved parliament should meet agains as if it was not already dissovled:

"in case there is no Parliament in being at the time of such demise that has met and sat, then the last preceding Parliament shall immediately convene, and sit at Westminster, and be a Parliament to continue as aforesaid, to all intents and purposes, as if the same Parliament had never been dissolved, but subject to be prorogued and dissolved as aforesaid."

This section was repealed and replaced by a more detailed provision in the Meeting of Parliament Act 1797, s. 2 & 3.----Bancki (talk) 14:14, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
