2nd Parliament of Queen Anne

Its composition was 260 Tories, 233 Whigs and 20 others but in practice the House was evenly divided.

[1] John Smith, the member for Andover, was elected Speaker of the House of Commons.

In another proclamation on 5 June, Anne listed the Scottish members (16 peers and 45 commissioners) by name who would join their English counterparts in the respective British assemblies and, without issuing new writs of summons, the Queen scheduled the First Parliament of Great Britain to "meet and be holden" on 23 October 1707.

The details of the fourth session which duly convened on 23 October 1707 are described under First Parliament of Great Britain.
