The Welsh Seal of the National Assembly for Wales
The Welsh Seal of the National Assembly for Wales The Great Seal of the Realm is the chief seal of the Crown, used to show the Monarch's approval of important state documents. The practice of using this seal began in the reign of Edward the Confessor in the eleventh century, when a double-sided metal matrix with an image of the Sovereign was used to make an impression in wax for attachment by ribbon or cord to Royal documents. The seal meant that the monarch did not need to sign every official document in person; authorisation could be carried out instead by an appointed officer. Between 2007 and 2011 proposed Measures passed by the National Assembly for Wales were subject to “Royal Approval”. Separate Great Seals exist for Scotland and Northern Ireland and, from 2011, a Seal for Wales now exists. Royal Assent Royal Assent is the Monarch's agreement to make a Bill into an Act of the National Assembly for Wales. Royal Assent is conferred by the Monarch signing Letters Patent under the Welsh Seal. The Monarch's agreement to give her assent to a Bill is automatic.

The Blair Government's Proposal to Abolish the Lord Chancellor Susanna Frederick Fischer* ABSTRACT This paper critically assesses a recent and significant constitutional change to the British judicial system. The Constitutional Reform Act 2005 swept away more than a thousand years of constitutional tradition by significantly reforming the ancient office of Lord Chancellor, which straddled all three branches of government. A stated goal of this legislation was to create more favorable external perceptions of the British constitutional and justice system. But even though the enacted legislation does substantively promote this goal, both by enhancing the separation of powers and implementing new statutory safeguards for * Susanna Frederick Fischer is an Assistant Professor at the Columbus School of Law, The Catholic University of America, in Washington D.C.

The Charter of Carolina (1663) WITH COMMENTARY BY DAVID WALBERT As you read... TWO KINGS CHARLES AND “CAROLANA” In 1629, King Charles I of England granted the land between 31 and 36 degrees north latitude and from the Atlantic to the Pacific to his attorney general, Sir Robert Heath. Charles named the land after himself (”Carolana”). But Heath never managed to establish a colony. In the 1640s, civil war broke out in England between Puritans and supporters of the king, and in 1649 Charles I was executed. For the next eleven years, England was ruled by Parliament and by a “Lord Protector,” Oliver Cromwell, who had led the Puritans in revolution. During that period of unrest, the English did not make any further efforts at colonizing the New World. In 1660, Charles I’s son was invited to return from exile and take the throne as Charles II. He then granted eight of his friends — men who had stood by his side during his exile — the land previously granted to Heath, and renamed it Carolina. PROPRIETARY POWER The idea of a proprietary colony is a strange one today. Not only were the Lords Proprietors the owners of Carolina, but they were to rule everyone else living there! England in 1663 was a monarchy, ruled by a king. Although the people and nobles of England had a say in their government, through Parliament, Parliament convened only when the king called it, and kings could rule for years at a time without calling a Parliament. (Charles II ruled without Parliament from 1679 until his death in 1685.) Much of English law regarding people’s rights and privileges, and especially the way land could be held, bought and sold, and inherited, was still based on the feudal system of the Middle Ages.
