The Queen's consent is expressed in terms to the effect that Her Majesty, having been informed of the purport of the bill, has consented to place her prerogative or interest, or both, at the disposal of Parliament for the purposes of the bill.
In each UK nation, the age at which people can legally consent to sexual activity (also known as the age of consent) is 16-years-old.
The key factor in determining whether consent was given is whether the other person was capable of making a conscious decision. If someone is too intoxicated to understand the nature of the act or to communicate their consent, then they cannot legally consent.
The decision to raise the age of consent to 16 in 1885, with higher penalties for offences against girls under the age of 13, resulted from the combination of a child protection agenda and a perceived need to control juvenile sexualities.
If a bill affects the interests of the King or Prince of Wales, they need to agree to put those interests at the disposal of the House. This is called Consent and is different to Royal Assent.
