- Molly Weasley: "Arthur Weasley, you made sure that was a loophole when you wrote that law!"
- — Arthur and Molly Weasley argue about the law
This artefact law was created by Arthur Weasley of the Misuse of Muggle Artefacts Office. He wrote that it was illegal to enchant a Muggle object. However, he intentionally wrote a loophole into the law so he could legally enchant a car (the Ford Anglia), by stating an object could be enchanted if the enchanter never intended to use it.[1]
It appeared in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
