Wills Act 1963
The Wills Act 1963 (1963 C. 44) is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that repealed the Wills Act 1861 and brought United Kingdom law in line with the suggestions of the Ninth Hague Conference on Private International Law, completed on 5 October 1961. Along with the Wills Act 1837, the 1963 Act is the principal Act dealing with wills in the United Kingdom. The 1963 Act allows a will to be considered "properly executed" if it was executed in line with local law in the state where it was executed, the state where the testator lived or the state the testator was a citizen of, rather than applying United Kingdom law to all wills.
==Background==
The 1861 Act, known as Lord Kingsdown's Act, was a frequently used example of the conflict between various national laws because of the different standards it set between subjects and wills from the United Kingdom and from other nations.〔Morris (1964) p.685〕 In addition it failed to distinguish between movable and immovable property, and immovable property had to be compatible with the law of the state it was in, with no consideration for the nationality of the testator or any other factors.〔
The meeting of the produced a Draft Convention on the Formal Validity of Wills, and combined with the Fourth Report of the Lord Chancellor's Private International Law Committee this provided enough incentive for the government to introduce a bill repealing the 1861 Act and replacing it with something that meshed with the law of other states.〔 The bill was introduced to the House of Commons on 21 November 1962, given its second reading on 22 February 1963, and received the Royal Assent on 31 July 1963.
