Importation Act 1667, an Act of the Parliament of England which banned Irish cattle from being sold in England
It was the work of George Villiers, 2nd Duke of Buckingham who apparently intended it to injure his enemies James Butler, 1st Duke of Ormonde and Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon.

Sir William Coventry, more realistically, warned Ormonde that in his view it would pass the Commons, that the House of Lords would make no difficulty, and that the King, embroiled with domestic problems and the Dutch war, would not risk offending Parliament by using his veto.
