C)made it legal to keep enslaved people for their entire lives.


It was legal, for the system of slavery sustained in the British colonies - and also in the Spanish and Portuguese, as in the case of Brazil - to maintain a person as a slave throughout his life. There was no time limit, children were also enslaved - daughters of slaves.
