The Occasional Conformity Act was an Act of the British Parliament to prevent Nonconformists and Roman Catholics from from taking "occasional" communion in the Church of England in order to become eligible for public office under the Corporation Act and the Test Act. Under these acts only members of the Church of England were allowed to hold any office of public trust. Previous Occasional Conformity bills had been debated in 1702 and 1704. The 1711 act was repealed in 1719.
