In 1918, Edwin Montagu, the Secretary of State, and Lord Chelmsford, the Viceroy, produced their scheme of constitutional reforms which led to the enactment of the Government of India Act of 1919. The Provincial Legislative Councils were enlarged and the majority of their members were to be elected. The provincial governments were given more powers under the system of Diarchy. Under this system some subjects, such as finance and law and order, were called „reserved? subjects and remained under the direct control of the Governor; others such as education, public health, and local self-government, were called „transferred? subjects and were to be controlled by ministers responsible to the legislatures.
