Well, since Petunia said that Lily did Magic at home... I'd assume that it 
was a recent-ish law. Wonder what event could have caused it...

Probably Fudge's too, if you follow that logic.


Jo Ellen:

Does Hogwarts have a tuition? The Weasleys couldn't possibly pay. And imagine 
asking The Dursleys to cough up money for a magic school.

But in chapter 1 of PS/SS Vernon didn't like the Potters because of their 
magic. Before they were dead, so I don't think that that is the reason.
