The Anguilla Act 1980 (c. 67) was an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, which received royal assent on the 16 December 1980.[1][2] The Act made provisions for the government of the United Kingdom to administer Anguilla, and pass laws for the territory or on its behalf.[3] The Act also ended the Associated State of St Kitts, Nevis and Anguilla,[4] which was created in turn by a federal act in 1882.[4] Section 1(1) and Section 2(2) were repealed in 1995.[5]
