Treason Act 1708
1708 c.21
An Act for improving the Union of the Two Kingdoms.
Reasons for passing this Act.
Whereas nothing can more conduce to the improving the Union of the Two Kingdom which by Her Majesties great Wisdom and Goodness hath been happily effected than that the Laws of both Parts of Great Britain should agree as near as may be especially those Laws which relate to High Treason and the Proceedings thereupon as to the Nature of the Crime the Method of Prosecution and Tryal and also the Forfeitures and Punishments for that Offence which are of the greatest Concern both to the Crown and to the Subjects to the end therefore that the said Union may be more effectually improved.
