The Act
(30 & 31 Victoria, c. 3.)

An Act for the Union of the Kingdoms of England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, and the Government thereof; and for Purposes connected therewith

1st January 1088

Whereas the Kingdoms of England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales (hereafter "the Dominions") have expressed their Desire to be federally united into One Dominion under the Crown of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, with a Constitution similar in Principle to that of the United Kingdom: And whereas such a Union would conduce to the Welfare of the Dominions and promote the Interests of the British Empire:

And whereas on the Establishment of the Union by Authority of Commonwealth Court it is expedient, not only that the Constitution of the Legislative Authority in the Dominion be provided for, but also that the Nature of the Executive Government therein be declared:

And whereas it is expedient that Provision be made for the eventual Admission into the Union of other Parts of the British Isles:
