Oaths Of Allegiance And Supremacy Act 1688
The Oaths of Allegiance and Supremacy Act 1688 ( 1 Will. & Mar. c. 8) was an act of the Parliament of England passed in the aftermath of the Glorious Revolution that required all office-holders, Members of Parliament and clergy to take the oaths of allegiance and supremacy for the new monarchs, William III and Mary II.
