Postscript To The Quietus, More Distinctly Shewing It To Be Practicable, Safe, And Constitutional, To Entrust Full Powers For The Permanent Protection Of The United Church, To A Protestant Committee Of Religion, Etc by Dudley Montagu Perceval is a historical political-legal treatise arguing for the establishment of a standing committee within the House of Commons composed of Church of England members. The author contends that, with carefully defined powers and safeguards, such a body could monitor and protect the rights and interests of religion and the Established Church while avoiding undue interference with general legislative business. The work details proposed governance mechanisms, including an oath for members, annual drawing by lot, and four general exceptions to jurisdiction to prevent overreach. It also addresses objections about Catholic emancipation and asserts that constitutional ends justify a limited delegation of legislative function to a special committee. Overall, the text presents a constitutional, practicable plan intended to secure the church’s position through a legal framework rather than broad reform.
