  1. NAS, PA2/8, I, f.1r. Note on PA2/8: This volume of the parliamentary register in fact appears to have been created from three separate volumes of 'official' acts, and therefore has three sets of separate folio numbers. For the purposes of this edition the separate sections are therefore described as PA2/8, I, II and III. Special note should be taken of the peculiarities of this volume, as PA2/8, III, repeats some of the legislation in PA2/8, II. The discrepancies between the two are in general slight, and have been noted where necessary. However PA2/8, III, is far less complete in the legislation it includes, and omits much material found in PA2/8, II. Back
