The minutes had different consequences. The Massachusetts Governing Act undid representative government and also decreed that political posts in colonial government were elected by Great Britain. The Justice Administration Act authorized the Governor of Massachusetts the right to transfer any judgment to Great Britain and authorized coercive actions to give witnesses to the case. The Boston Harbor Act closed the Port of Boston until it was paid for damages for the Tea Party in Boston, although it was never done. The Law of the quartering declared that the British troops not only had to lodge in commercial and empty buildings, but also in private houses.

The Intolerable Acts were also a determining factor for the convening of the First Continental Congress and the Declaration of Rights and Complaints. The Continental Congress rejected the Intolerable Acts when creating the Continental Association. The aim was to boycott British goods and if that failed to force Parliament to remove the tax records, then it would stop exporting to Britain.

On April 19, 1775, the tension increased that caused the Battle of Lexington, reaching the American Revolutionary War.
