The sub-series includes the original proclamation declaring that the Constitution Act, 1982, shall come into effect as of 17 April 1982. This proclamation was signed by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on Parliament Hill, Ottawa, on 17 April 1982, as part of the official proclamation ceremony. A second proclamation declaring that the Constitution Act, 1982, shall come into effect as of 17 April 1982 was signed by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II inside the Parliament Buildings, Ottawa, on 17 April 1982.
The sub-series also includes the original "Constitutional Amendment Proclamation, 1983" providing for the first amendment to the Constitution Act, 1982.
