The Army Act 1881 (44 & 45 Vict. c. 58) was an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that consolidated enactments related to army discipline and regulation in the United Kingdom.
Provisions Section 2 of the act provided that it would continue in force only for such time, and subject to such provisions, as were specified in an annual act of Parliament bringing it into force or continuing it.
Repealed enactments Section 193 of the act repealed 5 enactments, listed in the fifth schedule to the act. The repeal did not affect anything done, or any rights or liabilities acquired or accrued, before the commencement of the act, and so much of the Army Discipline and Regulation Act 1879 (42 & 43 Vict. c. 33) as remained unrepealed was to continue in force and be construed as if it were part of the act.
