The Nonconformist Relief Act 1779 [1] (19 Geo. 3. c. 44) was act of the Parliament of Great Britain. The act allowed any Dissenter to preach and teach on the condition that he declared he was a Protestant; took the Oaths of Allegiance and supremacy; and took the Scriptures for his rule of faith and practice. [2] [3] It relieved dissenting ministers from the obligation to subscribe to the Thirty-nine Articles.
The Dissenters (Ireland) Act 1817 (57 Geo. 3. c. 70) extended the 1779 act to Ireland.
