Acts relating to a particular subject often end up scattered over many years, and through the operation of clauses partially repealing or amending former acts, the specific meaning of the law regarding the subject becomes enveloped in intricate or contradictory expressions.

By 1911, such bills had been passed dealing with subjects as diverse as customs, stamps and stamp duties,

Procedure

Consolidation bills are introduced in the
House of Lords The House of Lords, also known as the House of Peers, is the upper house of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Membership is by appointment, heredity or official function. Like the House of Commons, it meets in the Palace of Westminster ...

second reading A reading of a bill is a stage of debate on the bill held by a general body of a legislature. In the Westminster system, developed in the United Kingdom, there are generally three readings of a bill as it passes through the stages of becoming ...

Categories of consolidation bills

There are five categories of bill that qualify as consolidation bills: #Bills which only re-enact existing law. #Bills which consolidate previous laws with amendments, proposed in response to recommendations from the Law Commission. #Bills to
repeal A repeal (O.F. ''rapel'', modern ''rappel'', from ''rapeler'', ''rappeler'', revoke, ''re'' and ''appeler'', appeal) is the removal or reversal of a law. There are two basic types of repeal; a repeal with a re-enactment is used to replace the law ...
existing legislation, again prepared by the Law Commission. #Bills to repeal various obsolete or unnecessary parts of existing legislation. #Bills which make corrections and minor improvements to existing legislation, prepared under the Consolidation of Enactments (Procedure) Act 1949. The first three categories now account for almost all consolidation bills.
