Acts of Parliament (Commencement) Act 1793
Okay, so let's imagine that you and your friends want to build a fort in your backyard. You make a plan for what the fort will look like and what materials you will need to build it. Then you start gathering the materials and putting everything together.
That's kind of like what the people who make laws in the UK do. They come up with an idea for a new law and then they spend a lot of time writing everything down and figuring out how it will work.
But just like building a fort, making a law is only the beginning. Once the law is written down, it needs to be put into action. That's where the Acts of Parliament (Commencement) Act 1793 comes in.
This act basically says that whenever a new law is made, it won't go into effect right away. Instead, the people who made the law get to decide when it will start working.
Think of it like this: if you and your friends built your fort in the middle of winter, it might not be very fun to play in because it's too cold outside. So you might decide to wait until spring to start using it.
That's kind of like what happens with new laws. The people who made the law might want to wait until a certain date to start using it. Maybe they need to make sure everyone knows about the law first or they need to put some rules in place to make sure it's enforced properly.
So the Acts of Parliament (Commencement) Act 1793 is just a way for the people who make laws to have more control over when those laws actually start working. It's kind of like a set of rules for when a law goes into effect, just like you have rules for when you start playing in your fort.
