Summary, etc. | Continuing efforts toward administrative rationalization and centralization undertaken in the final years of Louis XVI’s reign, the Constituent Assembly undertook somewhat quickly a reform of the royal treasury in order to modernize it further and to improve its efficiency. This was a matter not only of fighting the abuses of treasurers or tax collectors but of offering the government the possibility of always knowing the amount of state funds. While the reform was implemented without much technical difficulty, it aroused considerable political opposition. Whereas some Assembly members wished to invest control of this institution in the king, a process considered inseparable from its administration, others, more suspicious of Louis XVI, wanted to entrust maximum control over public funds to the legislature. Ultimately, the system adopted reflected both of these aims, leaving to the monarch the choice of those responsible for the treasury while granting to the Legislative Assembly some powers of monitoring. |
