ACTS OF PARLIAMENT (EXPIRATION) ACT 1808

ACTS OF PARLIAMENT (EXPIRATION) ACT 1808 - LONG TITLE

An Act to remedy the Inconvenience which has arisen and may arise
from the Expiration of Acts before the passing of Acts to continue
the same.{1}
[25th June 1808]
When bills for continuing Acts which would expire during the session
shall not pass before the Acts expire, such Acts shall be deemed
to be continued from their expiration.

WHEREAS bills for the continuing of Acts in force only for a
limited time have sometimes not passed before the expiration of the
Act intended to be continued, and great inconvenience may arise
therefrom: where any bill may have been or shall be introduced into
this present or any future session of Parliament for the continuance
of any Act which would expire in such sessions, and such Act shall
have expired before the bill for continuing the same shall have
received the royal assent, such continuing Act shall be deemed and
taken to have effect from the date of the expiration of the Act
intended to be continued as fully and effectually, to all intents
and purposes, as if such continuing Act had actually passed before
the expiration of such Act, except it shall be otherwise especially
provided in such continuing Act: Provided nevertheless, that nothing
herein contained shall extend or be construed to extend to affect
any person or persons with any punishment, penalty, or forfeiture
whatsoever, by reason of anything done or omitted to be done by
any such person or persons contrary to the provisions of the Act
so continued, between the expiration of the same and the date at
which the Act continuing the same may have received or shall
receive the royal assent.
