Political career

Carteret was returned to Parliament for Weobly in May 1796, a seat he held until December the same year,[3] and then represented Bath between 1796 and 1832.[4] He served as Vice-Chamberlain of the Household from 1804 to 1812 and was sworn into the Privy Council in 1804.[5]

In 1838 he succeeded his childless elder brother George in the barony and took his seat in the House of Lords.
