Regulating Act of 1773
The Regulating Act of 1773 was the first act of the British Parliament to regulate the East India Company's government in India. It created the post of governor-general of Bengal, first held by Warren Hastings, with a council of four and authority over Madras and Bombay, and set up a Supreme Court at Calcutta. Pitt's India Act of 1784 extended this control.
