Answer:

This was the Quartering Act (1770, 1774).

Step-by-step explanation:

There were five Intolerable Acts passed by the Parliament. The Quartering Act (passed in 1770 and renewed in 1774) enabled the governors of the states to take land and property from colonists for use by His Majesty's Army and Navy without prior consent from the colonists.
