Security Act amendment

The Security Act was passed by the Galactic Senate by a wide margin the day after the Second Battle of Coruscant. It nominally transferred command of the Jedi Council from the Senate directly to the Supreme Chancellor, thus providing him with the Constitutional authority to disband the Jedi Order. It was written by Palpatine but given to a loyal senator to introduce, in order to maintain the facade of the Senate forcing power on him against his will.
