Colonists also established their own legislative bodies to make and enforce their own laws like the Virginia House of Burgesses.Because salutary neglect was an undocumented, though long standing, British policy of avoiding strict enforcement of parliamentary laws meant to keep the American colonies obedient to Great Britain. Prime Minister Robert Walpole stated that "if no restrictions were placed on the colonies, they would flourish", which is important because before they had believed in Autonomy.
The undocumented British policy known as the Salutary Neglect Policy was put in place in an attempt to make the American colonies obedient to Great Britain.

An example sentence could be: "The policy of salutary neglect led to increased autonomy and prosperity in the American colonies before tensions arose leading to the Revolutionary War."
For a while, Britain did not enforce all its laws in the American colonies, hoping this policy of salutary neglect would avoid conflict.
