About English Reformation Parliament

The English Reformation Parliament, which was summoned by Henry VIII on 9 August 1529, sat from 3 November 1529 until 14 April 1536. It established the legal basis for the English Reformation, passing major pieces of legislation which formally enacted the break with Rome and increased the authority of the Church of England. Under the direction of King Henry VIII, the Reformation Parliament was the first in English history to deal with major religious legislation, much of it orchestrated by, among others, the Boleyn family and Thomas Cromwell. This legislation transferred many aspects of English life away from the control of the Roman Catholic Church to control under the Crown. As well as setting a precedent for future monarchs to utilize parliamentary statutes affecting the Church of England, this strengthened the role of the Parliament of England and provided a significant transference of wealth from the representatives of the Roman Catholic Church to the English Crown.
