And whereas doubts have arisen touching the validity of marriages solemnized in churches which have been made and constituted the churches of distinct parishes, or district parishes, under the provisions of the M1Church Building Act 1818; and also of the M2Church Building Act 1819: And whereas it is expedient that such doubts should be removed: Therefore be it enacted, that all marriages which have already been solemnized, or may hereafter be solemnized, in any church which shall have been made and constituted the church of a distinct parish, or of a district parish, as aforesaid, after consecration thereof and assignment of a district thereto, shall be as good and valid in law as if such marriages had been solemnized in any parish church wherein banns had been usually published before or at the time of passing an Act made in the twenty-sixth year of King George the Second intituled An Act for the better preventing of clandestine marriages.
