The fall of the Vreede-Fijnje "Bewind" opened the way for the actual implementation of the new constitution. The "Interim Directory" that now came to power (consisting of a few of the dissenting "Agenten") made haste with organizing elections for the Representative Assembly that convened on 31 July. By the middle of August a new "Uitvoerend Bewind" had been appointed and the "Agenten" who had been behind the coup, resumed their original positions. This new regime now started to implement the policies that their radical predecessors had written into the constitution. The coup of June therefore was not a reactionary revolution, but only brought about a change in personnel. Soon most of the people that were arrested at both the January and June coups were released in the spirit of reconciliation that the new regime advocated. The make-up of the Representative Assembly closely resembled that of the second National Assembly of 1797.
