Royal Assent Act 1967
The Royal Assent Act 1967 is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that amends the law relating to the signification of royal assent to allow laws from the Parliament of the United Kingdom to be enacted though the pronunciation and notification of both Houses of Parliament, and repeals the Royal Assent by Commission Act 1541. It received royal assent on 10 May 1967.
The Act does not apply to the royal assent of any legislation that is and has been passed by the Scottish Parliament, Welsh Assembly or the Northern Ireland Assembly since the establishment of devolution.
Nothing in the Royal Assent Act 1967 affects the power of the monarch to signify His or Her royal assent in person in the House of Lords. Queen Victoria was the last Sovereign to do so.
