IV c. 45) which introduced wide-ranging changes to the electoral system of England and Wales.<br /> <br /> == Description ==<br /> <br /> According to its preamble, the Act was designed to &quot;take effectual Measures for correcting divers Abuses that have long prevailed in the Choice of Members to serve in the Commons House of Parliament&quot;.<br /> <br /> Before the reform, most members nominally represented boroughs.<br /> <br /> The number of electors in a borough varied widely, from a dozen or so up to 12,000.<br /> <br /> Frequently the selection of MPs was effectively controlled by one powerful patron: for example Charles Howard, 11th Duke of Norfolk controlled eleven boroughs.<br /> <br /> Criteria for qualification for the franchise varied greatly between boroughs, from the requirement to own land, to merely living in a house with a hearth sufficient to boil a pot.<br /> <br /> == Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey ==<br /> <br /> The act was championed by [[Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey]].<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> <br /> == External links ==<br /> <br /> * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reform_Act_1832 Reform Act 1832] @ Wikipedia</div>
