The Redonda Annexation Act (c. 373) is an act of the Parliament of Antigua and Barbuda which annexed the uninhabited island of Redonda into the parish of Saint John. This is the last time the borders of Antigua and Barbuda were changed. It went into force on 26 March 1872.
Contents and history
The act declared that upon annexation, Redonda would be subject to all laws and statues of Antigua. The act also permitted Parliament to declare that certain laws may not be applied to the island. The act stated that the island was to become part of the parish of Saint John, and that it would be subject to magistrates' court district "A".
Due to the act, Antigua and Barbuda's exclusive economic zone stretches in between Nevis and Montserrat.
