Council of Revision

Commentary

The Virginia Plan provided a council of revision to help the executive review and enforce the federal laws. Unlike a council of state proposed by George Mason or an advisory council advocated by Charles Pinckney, the council of revision would not provide the President guidance as he discharged his daily governing duties.

Associated event

The Virginia Plan as Proposed was created on 29 May 1787
