tensive with that of the King, but its
powers gradually underwent a COM
plete change From the accession Of
Richard II. to the end of the reign OF
Henry VI. the Privy Council were not
only the servants but the ministers of
the crown, and acted as a check upon
royal authority. The body exercised
control in several ways Sometimes it
merely advised and recommended. At
other times the Chancellor might re-
fuse to affiX the Great Seal to any royal
act which the Council disapprOved of.
This led to the creation Of a privy
seal. but that passed into the control
Of an official, and the Council still
reigned supreme to the extent that the
sovereign must abide by it's decisions.
In the reign OF Henry V. the Council's
authority was mixture of administra-
tive and judicial powers, but after the
war of the Roses many changes. grad
