WHereas there have divers Ordinances passed, for the raising and bringing in moneys for supply and support of the great affairs of the kingdom, which by the neglect and unwillingness of such who are entrusted with the raising, collecting, and bringing in of the said moneys, to use such means as by the said Ordinances are appointed to bring in the said moneys, great considerable sums of moneys, are yet in arrear, and not brought in. It is this day Ordered by the Lords and Commons in Parliament Assembled, That the Committees of Lords and Commons for Advance of moneys, shall have power to use all such means as they shall think fit, by distress, or Imprisonment, according to the said several and respective Ordinances, to bring in the said moneys with all convenient speed.
