The acts cover a range of topics including duties tariffs and taxes; the paying and management of military personnel and militias; and the management of churches. The most significant of the acts however is Act 15 of the second set of acts entitled "An Act for Providing a Publick Reward for such Person or Persons as shall Discover the Longitude at Sea". This formally established the Commissioners of the Longitude and the reward of £20000 for "the first Author or Authors Discoverer or Discoverers of any such method ." that to the satisfaction of the committee accurately determined a ship's longitude at sea accurate to within 20 geographical miles. This reward would not be claimed until 1765 when clockmaker John Harrison developed his "time-keeper" or marine chronometer. 1394685. Special Collections - Upstairs. Printed by John Baskett hardcover
