&lt;p&gt;Whereas We, by and with the advice of Our Privy Council, being desirous and resolved, as soon as may be, to meet Our People, and to have their Advice in Parliament, do publish this, Our Royal Proclamation, and do hereby make known to all Our loving Subjects Our Royal Will and Pleasure to call a new Parliament to be holden at Westminster on Monday the eighteenth day of May next: And We do hereby also, by this Our Royal Proclamation under Our Great Seal of Our Realm, require Writs to be issued by Our Chancellor of Great Britain for causing the Lords Spiritual and Temporal who are to serve in the said Parliament to give their Attendance in Our said Parliament on the said date.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Given at Our Court at Buckingham Palace, this thirtieth day of March in the Year of our Lord two thousand and fifteen and in the sixty-fourth year of Our Reign.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GOD SAVE THE QUEEN&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

This Proclamation was not accompanied by the customary Order in Council directing the Lord Chancellor and the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland to issue writs for calling a new Parliament.</text>

              <text>This was the first Dissolution Proclamation following the passage of the &lt;a href="https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/11/contents" title="Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act 2022"&gt;Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act 2022&lt;/a&gt; which repealed the Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011 and purported to revive the power to dissolve Parliament under the royal prerogative. The question of whether a prerogative power can be revived by statute is contested. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This instrument follows the wording of pre-2011 Dissolution Proclamations. It was also accompanied by an Order in Council directing the Lord Chancellor and the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland to issue writs for calling the new Parliament.</text>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;LORD CHANCELLOR’S DEPARTMENT&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Appointment:&lt;/strong&gt; Want you to be Lord Chancellor.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Accommodation:&lt;/strong&gt; You will of course have the Lord Chancellor’s flat as Speaker of the Lords.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;nb. i.  could lose flat if Lord Chancellor ceased to be Speaker;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;    ii.  no need to mention salary; already draws it in full.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Special Adviser:&lt;/strong&gt; Understand you wish to reappoint Gary Hart [marginal note: A peer?]. Am prepared exceptionally to agree this now without a letter (Sir H. Phillips will formally record).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cabinet Committees:&lt;/strong&gt; Want you to take over the chairmanship of CRP Committee from me. Also to chair:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;Human Rights Committee (CRP(EC))&lt;br /&gt;Freedom of Information Committee (CRP(FOI))&lt;br /&gt;House of Lords Reform Committee (CRP(HL))&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Structural changes:&lt;/strong&gt; Important changes to LCD and Home Office, summarised in note, with immediate effect.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Court Service:&lt;/strong&gt; Have decided to bring the Court Service and Magistrates’ Courts together with rest of criminal justice system under Home Secretary.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You will however remain responsible for judicial appointments and other judicial matters, legal aid, Criminal Defence Service and will continue to administer some tribunals uncluding immigration appeals tribunals.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Constitution etc from Home Office:&lt;/strong&gt; Have also decided to transfer many of Home Office’s constitutional responsibilities to LCD. These include Freedom of information, data protection, Human Rights, Channel Islands, Royal, Church of England and hereditary matters.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Arguments for what is proposed:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;i.  Improving the performance of the criminal justice system is a top priority for this Parliament. [marginal note: ?]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Action required:&lt;/strong&gt; Crucial to have your support. Know that the judiciary will be worried. Essential that you see the Lord Chief Justice and Master of the Rolls &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CONFIDENTIAL &amp;amp; PERSONAL&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;span class="page"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CONFIDENTIAL &amp;amp; PERSONAL&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;today to reassure them. Independence of the judiciary not affected. Judicial appointments, Legal Aid and Criminal Defence Service remain with Lord Chancellor.&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next steps:&lt;/strong&gt; Planning announcement of changes at [time]. Your permanent secretary Hayden Phillips has been briefed and is ready with the details.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;8 June 2001&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CONFIDENTIAL &amp;amp; PERSONAL&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PRIME MINISTER&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FIRST DAY BACK&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Welcome back!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Formation of your new Cabinet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2.  You will want to make an early start on the formation of your Cabinet. I list at A the main Ministers whom I think you may want to appoint first, in the order in which you may want to speak to them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3.  I suggest that, after the Chancellor of the Exchequer, you should start with those who are involved in major changes in the structure of Government.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4.  This means beginning with the Lord Chancellor, whose support is essential for moving the Court Service to the Home Office and who must talk to the Lord Chief Justice and the Master of the Rolls today to tell them what is happening. Then the Home Secretary and – exceptionally – the Attorney General to get him on side with the legal profession as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5.  In each case I have suggested points which you may wish to cover, plus a note of the changes which you making in structure which you can give each Minister to avoid any doubt. We will have copies available to hand across at the time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6.  There are bound to be attempts to haggle. In particular:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;Derry Irvine, if he remains Lord Chancellor, may not want to lose the Court Service;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;David Blunkett, if he becomes Home Secretary, may regret losing Home Office responsibilities elsewhere, particularly the Active Community Unit (to the Cabinet Office), Liquor Licensing (to DCMS), Electoral Law and the Fire Service (to DETR);&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;Jack Straw, if he goes to DETR, may object to losing Regional Development Agencies and the sponsorship of the construction industry.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CONFIDENTIAL &amp;amp; PERSONAL&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!-- Divider --&gt;
&lt;div style="border-top:2px solid #000;margin:2em 0;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p class="page-number" style="text-align:left;"&gt;Page 2&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span class="page"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CONFIDENTIAL &amp;amp; PERSONAL&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have covered the arguments in the speaking notes. But the basic point is that these are matters for decision by you. You are strongly placed to have your own way today.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Other points&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;7.  You will want to remember:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;i.  to tell the Queen that you are minded to transfer responsibility for Royal matters to the Lord Chancellor. You, supported by me as Cabinet Secretary, will still remain Her principle source of advice on the most important and sensitive issues;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;ii.  if you agree, William Chapman will speak to the Archbishop of Canterbury about the transfer of relations with the Church of England from the Home Office to the Lord Chancellor’s Department;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;iii.  to authorise me to set up Legislation Committee immediately, under the chairmanship of the Leader of the House, so that it can meet on Tuesday to discuss the Legislative Programme;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;iv.  to discuss with Alastair Campbell and Godric Smith how to present your decision to take over Number 12 in a manner which does not appear arrogant to Parliament;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:2em;"&gt;v.  to appoint the Minister for competitiveness at DTI before Sunday so that he or she can go to Brussels for an important meeting of the Employment Council;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;RICHARD WILSON&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;8 June 2001&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CONFIDENTIAL &amp;amp; PERSONAL&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>
