The same year, the government passed the first of two recruiting acts which allowed a
limited form of impressment in parts of England and Scotland under strict conditions,
however the measure proved unpopular and both acts were repealed in May 1780,
permanently discontinuing impressment in the army. (Johnson, 2020) Interestingly, The
recruiting acts of 1778 and 1779 also provided greater incentives for voluntarily joining the
regular army, including a bounty of £3 and the entitlement to discharge after three years
unless the nation remained at war.
