<p>The Easter Act 1928, which remains on the Statute Book, would set the date for
Easter to fall on the Sunday that follows the second Saturday in April. The Act has
not been brought into force. To do so would require an Order in Council, with the
approval of both Houses of Parliament. If the Christian churches agreed on moving
to a fixed date for Easter then the Government would consider whether to bring into
force the Easter Act 1928 or to make such other legislative provision as may be needed.</p>
