Roles:	The columns headed PM [Police Magistrate], GF [Commissioner of Crown Lands for the Gold Fields (1851-1855) or Warden of the Gold Fields (1855-1907)], CL [Commissioner of Crown Lands], and CP [Chinese Protector] show the Golden Colony roles that were affected by the legislation.

Number:	The number of the law is the regnal year, monarch, and a sequence number. For example, 15 Victoria 15 is the 15th bill passed in the 15th year of Queen Victoria's reign (not calendar year). Initially, the sequence number was restarted each regnal year. From 1856 (in Victoria), the sequence number was within the sovereign's reign.
