The meetings that led to the passing of the Supremacy Act in 1534 primarily involved King Henry VIII and the English Parliament. The Act declared the king as the Supreme Head of the Church of England, effectively breaking away from the authority of the Pope and the Roman Catholic Church. This period was marked by Henry's desire to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, which was a significant factor in the English Reformation. The discussions and negotiations took place between 1529 and 1536, culminating in the Act's passage.
