Consolidation (law)

"Consolidation Act" redirects here; it is not to be confused with the Royal Navy Consolidation Act 1749, or the Pennsylvania Act of Consolidation, 1854.

In law, consolidation is a process which enables several legislative acts to be combined into a single expression of the law, either by the formation of a single act which replaces those which are incorporated into it, or as a means of presenting legal information in a single document for convenience, but without replacing the substantive legal acts themselves.
