The Council itself also makes proposals.

These included 128 enactments(proposals to amend the constitutional documents of RI) and 92 resolutions (proposals whichdo not seek to amend the constitutional documents of RI). Of these, the Council adopted 47enactments and 19 resolutions. The Council referred 3 pieces to the RI Board for furtherstudy. The Council rejected 101 proposals, and 50 proposals were withdrawn or considered withdrawn. Of the 66 adopted proposals, the Council adopted 51 exactly as they wereproposed, while 15 were adopted with amendments.
