        • initaly could act without a jury
        • heavily involved and curtail in the implementation of the 1563 statue of artificers and 1597 poor relief
        • incresed presence of Jps ment that it was easier to enforce laws and govern the localities
    • P2 counter argument
      • no as problems with policy eg poor laws = innovative and ineffective
      • no as there were still problems seen in local gov - eg ketts rebellion
