22 June 1807

Official record of parliamentary proceedings from the opening of the Fourth Parliament of the United Kingdom in June 1807, covering the election of Speaker Charles Abbot, royal commissions, and Lords' and Commons' debates on the King's Speech and parliamentary dissolution. While the 1765 Revestment predates this by 42 years, this published collection of parliamentary debates serves as essential contextual material for understanding Westminster procedure, constitutional conventions, and the political machinery that governed imperial and domestic affairs.
