The Metropolitan Police Act 1833 (3 & 4 Will. 4 c. 89) was an act of the [[Parliament of the United Kingdom. The act was the second of the Metropolitan Police Acts, granted royal assent on 28 August 1833.[1] The Metropolitan Police had previously solely been paid by the Rates from parishes within the Metropolitan Police District, but the act enabled that to be supplemented by payments from the Consolidated Fund of up to £60,000 a year.[1]
Subsequent developments
The whole act was repealed by the Police Rate Act 1868 (31 & 32 Vict. c. 67), which came into force on 31 July 1868.[2]
