The Bill of Rights 1689, reduced the monarchy powers of James II (and of future monarchs), and developed parliamentary powers, for example, article 1 states that “By Assumeing and Exerciseing a Power of Dispensing with and Suspending of Lawes and the Execution of Lawes without Consent of Parlyament”. Consequently, the king was no restricted as to what he could do now, he must inform all his subjects at Parliament before he could do things such as suspending of laws or execution of laws… Regal authority was no longer enough. It was agreed that the monarchy would no longer lay any claim to constitutional primacy in the sense of having any power to dispense with Acts of Parliament .
