PARLIAMENTARY

This article appears in Volume V22, Page 961 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PAI-PAS
PARLIAMENTARY REcoRns.The proceedings of
parliament
  were recorded either on a roll prepared for each session, or on detached documents and petitions made up into sessional files. The files have now disappeared, although transcripts of some still exist, and in many cases their constituents can be traced among the Ancient Petitions (see below under
SPECIAL
  COLLECTIONS). The rolls known as
Parliament
  Rolls form a broken
series
 , 18
Edward
  I. to 4849 Victoria. The tolls for
Edward
  I. and Edward II. are among the Exchequer records, and the remainder are in the chancery. Of these rolls and files, and of certain pleadings found in the records of the King's Remembrancer, the
Record
  Commission published what was meant to be a complete reprint. But the editors relied partly upon transcripts and partly upon
original
  documents, and it is often difficult to determine the sources from which they drew. So prepared, the Rolls of Parliament (6 vols.) cover the period from 6 Edward I. to I Mary. The roll for 33 Edward I., unknown to them, has been edited (Rolls
Series
 , vol. 98) by F. W. Maitland, with a valuable introduction and appendices; rolls for 18 Edward I. and 12 Edward II. are printed in H. Coles' Documents Illustrative of English History. The Parliament Roll includes enrolments of statutes among its contents. But from Edward I. to Edward IV. the statutes after receiving the royal assent were also enrolled upon the
Statute
  Roll (chancery), of which only six rolls now remain. From these rolls and other sources the
Record
  Commission prepared the volumes known as Statutes of the Realm on principles described in the introduction to that
work
 . Unfortunately the editors made use of early printed texts, and translations based upon the inferior texts contained in Exchequer K.R. Miscellaneous Books 9, 10 and ii, and so diminished the value of their
work
 . The Statutes of the Realm extend to the end of the reign of Queen Anne. Since then public general acts have been pub, lished in many forms; private acts ceased to be enrolled upon the Parliament Rolls during the 16th century; the originals are preserved in the
House
  of Lords. The Record Office contains detached documents relating to parliamentary proceeding known as Exchequer Parliamentary and Chancery Parliamentary, but neither class has yet taken a final form.
