    CultureThe Privy Council is made up of politicians and other important people in the legal profession, the Church and the Commonwealth, and its head is the Lord President of the Council. The number of members has grown over time as people are given the position for life. The Privy Council first became powerful in the 14th century, but was replaced in 1688 by the cabinet. It now has few functions in government, and is mainly important as a personal honour for its members.
