The Constitutional Settlement Act of 1902 was a wide-reaching piece of legislation passed by the Conshilía Daoni in 1902 at the urging of King Patrick III following his restoration at the end of the Red Interregnum. The end of the Crown Regency of Gréagóir FitzRex posed significant legal questions for Urcea, especially regarding the legitimacy of many of the acts of the Conshilía Daoni adopted since the beginning of the Regency. The King and Daoni determined to declare every act of the Daoni since the death of Aedanicus VIII to be illegitimate, and decided to retroactively legalize many of the positive changes by a new, comprehensive Act of the Daoni.
The Constitutional Settlement Act consequently codified many of the changes made in the period 1889-1902. These changes included the Administrative Reorganization Act of 1892, language providing for reintegration into some of the economic institutions of the Holy Levantine Empire that had been severed since the 1890s, language continuing the social assistance programs created during the Regency, language asking the King, as head of the Estates of Urcea, to produce a final settlement on the status of Social class in Urcea, and language confirming other various reforms implemented by FitzRex. The Act also fixed the number of members of the Conshilía Daoni at 500, a limitation that remains in force today, and it also financially compensated dispossessed large estate owners who lost their land due to the war or Urcean Republic and took possession of the land for the Kingdom to be used for a new wave of Ómestaderoi. The Act also provided for some significant changes to the Peerage of Urcea, abolishing hereditary inheritance of titles beyond the current title holder and their heir. The Act additionally imbued Patrick III with broad powers to root out reamining militant republicans and other dissidents, powers which he delegated to the new Agency for the Preservation of the Restoration created under the Royal Administration. These powers would later be augmented by the Enabling Act of 1903.
