List of acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1995

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom passed in 1995.

Acts passed since 1963 are cited by calendar year,[1] as opposed to the convention used for earlier acts of citing the regnal year(s) in which the relevant parliamentary session was held.[2] Each act passed in a respective year is given a chapter number (abbreviated "c."), denoted by Arabic numerals in the case of public general acts, lowercase Roman numerals in the case of local acts, or italicised Arabic numerals in the case of personal acts. These run as separate series.[3]

65 acts of Parliament were passed in 1995: 54 public general acts and 11 local acts.
