Prorogation Act 1867
The Prorogation Act 1867 is an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom which is still in force in the United Kingdom with amendments.
It was passed to simplify the forms of prorogation during a recess of Parliament. Prorogation is the period from the formal end of a parliamentary session to the opening of the next session. The act allowed the period of a prorogation to be extended to a day at least 14 days later.
