Page "Bill of Rights 1689" Paragraph 2

Along with the Act of Settlement ( 1700 or 1701 ), the Bill of Rights is still in effect.

It is one of the main constitutional laws governing the succession to the throne of the United Kingdom and — following British colonialism, the resultant doctrine of reception, and independence — to the thrones of those other Commonwealth realms, by willing deference to the Act as a British statute or as a patriated part of the particular realm's constitution.

Since the implementation of the Statute of Westminster 1931 in each of the Commonwealth realms ( on successive dates from 1931 onwards ) the Bill of Rights cannot be altered in any realm except by that realm's own parliament, and then, by convention, and as it touches on the succession to the shared throne, only with the consent of all the other realms.
