Series of laws sponsored by British Prime Minister Lord North and enacted in 1774 in response to the Boston Tea Party.

Quartering Act, which allowed royal troops to stay in houses or empty buildings if barracks were not available Quebec Act, which granted civil government and religious freedom to Catholics living in Quebec.
