analysis of change from government from council → key minister

  • collective decision-making from advisors (1509-14) → centralised control

  • policy introduced quicker

New cards

counter - not actually a change in government by council → key minister

  • Cromwell’s death 1540 = conciliar government (Privy Council) restored as main body for government administration

  • nothing could happen without Henry’s approval

New cards

analysis of counter that no fundamental change 

Henry still ultimate authority, just delegates power differently / temporarily to benefit him

  • 1509-14 = Henry VII’s old councillors

  • then individuals to push for Reformation

  • later, council = practical, safer
