The Parliament Acts of 1911 and 1949 established the principle of parliamentary supremacy in the United Kingdom. These laws allowed the House of Commons to bypass the House of Lords in certain circumstances, particularly regarding legislation. By limiting the power of the Lords to block money bills and other legislation, these acts reinforced the authority of the elected Commons and solidified the supremacy of Parliament in the legislative process.
