British Regency Bill

A regency bill is before the British Parliament providing, says the Times (weekly) of June 17, "that should a regency be necessary, her majesty Queen Mary should have full authority under the style and title of regent to exercise and administer the royal power and government of this realm and of the dominions and territories belonging to the Crown." It disables the regent, if she should become reconciled to the Church of Rome or should marry a person professing the Roman Catholic religion, from continuing to exercise or hold office.
