The Consolidation of Enactments (Procedure) Act 1949 (12, 13 & 14 Geo. 6. c. 33) is an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that provides a procedure for including "minor corrections and improvements" in consolidation bills.
In 1995, Halsbury's Laws of England said that the procedure authorised by this act was "no longer used in practice".[1]
The Marriage Act 1949 (12, 13 & 14 Geo. 6. c. 76) was the first act to be enacted under the act.[2]
