Answer: True

Explanation:

With so many people claiming the ''Benefit of clergy'' to avoid proper punishments for their crimes, the English courts needed a more powerful deterrent for crimes.

The Penal Transportation Act of 1718 was the solution. It allowed the courts to sentence convicts to seven years transportation to the American colonies. If the prisoners returned before then, it would be treated as a capital offence.
