Synopsis
This book explores the question of who should rule England if the King is incapacitated and the monarchy temporarily suspended. An examination of historical Regencies in England dating back to Henry III, provides a framework for analyzing the legal and constitutional considerations involved. The right of Parliament to appoint a Regent and impose limitations on their power is considered as is the nature of a Regency as an inherited office versus a provisional appointment. The author goes on to discuss various proposals for a Regency in the event of the current King's incapacity and argues against the idea of an inherent right to the Regency for the heir apparent. The book concludes with a discussion of the broader constitutional principles involved in appointing a Regent, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding the rights of the people and the integrity of the monarchy.
