		The Regency Bill of 1789 was a proposed Act of Parliament to provide that King George III's eldest son Prince George, Prince of Wales would act as regent due to the King's incapacity through mental illness.

	Regent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A regent, from the Latin regens "who reigns" is anyone who acts as head of state, especially if not the monarch (who has higher titles).
		In the interim, it was the Polish Roman Catholic Primate who served as the regent, termed the "interrex" (Latin: ruler "between kings," as in ancient Rome).
		It should be noted that those who held a regency briefly, for example during surgery, are not necessarily listed, particularly if they performed no official acts; this list is also not complete.

	Erskine May, Chapter III, pp. 216-224
		The law did not recognise the incapacity of an infant king; and, in the event of a sudden demise of the crown before a regent had been appointed, the infant sovereign would be able to give her assent to an act of Parliament, appointing a guardian for herself, and a regent for the kingdom.
		The Duchess of Kent would at once assume the regency in the name of the infant queen, and on her behalf; and should a posthumous child be born, her Majesty Queen Adelaide would forthwith assume the regency, on behalf of her own child.
		These principles were accepted by statesmen and lawyers of every party; and the Regency Bill, which had been prepared by the government of the Duke of Wellington, was adopted and passed by the government of Lord Grey.(2) It was a wise provision for contingencies, which fortunately never arose.

	THE ANCIENT CONSTITUTION
		At first, attempts were made to control cabinets in the royal interest but soon the convention of ministerial responsibility grew; this means, in brief, that the sovereign never exercises any of his or her powers without the advice of a minister nor refuses to exercise these powers when a minister advises him to do so.
		This is well recognized, and thus responsibility for any royal act is always laid at the door of the minister who advised it, not that of the sovereign in whose name it was done.
		Nowadays the minority, incapacity or absence from the country of the sovereign is provided for by the Regency acts of 1937-53, which allow for the appointment of a regent in the case of minority (which ends at 18) or of counselors of state if the sovereign is ill or abroad.
