Between July 1794 and 31 May 1795 the [[Convention]] went about demolishing the machinery of the Terror. This included the abolition of the Revolutionary Tribunal, the release of all suspects from prison and the closing of the Jacobin Club. The role of the CPS and CGS was taken over by committees of the Convention to limit their power. To deal with religious issues, the Convention renounced the [[Constitutional Church]] and enforced the separation of Church and State by deciding to no longer pay clerical salaries. Freedom of worship for all religions was restored on 21 February 1795, thus formally ending the policy of de-christianisation. France was the first major European country to declare itself entirly neutral in all matters of religion.
