The vicecomitatus (aka shrievalty or sheriffdom, and now modern county) was the first item to be enumerated in the first Duchy Charter and, as with all other things was "annexed and united to the aforesaid Duchy" (it having already been created!) forever without being given elsewhere. When there was any alienation of the 'private' estate this was either illegally done and, consequently, recoverable by legal claim of right, or legally done by the use of an Act of Parliament "Disannexing" the item and another "Annexing" Act to replace it with something of equivalent value. Therefore, it seems a reasonable assumption to expect similar legal treatment for something as important as the civil government of both the Duchy of Cornwall and the Cornish Nation.
Had this been readily available as evidence to be brought forward, then it would have been done long ago. It would also have legally prevented the Royal Commission on the Constitution in 1972 recommending a greater use of the 'Duchy of Cornwall' to appease the call by MK, at that time, for greater constitutional accomodation for Cornwall. When the proposed book on Cornish Law is eventually published, then we can look at things a bit differently. A layman's view of it is given on the TGG website under Pro-Cornish Actions [Constitution]. Take a look at the 'Genocide' pages for good measure, because it completes the picture.

"I see on the C24 site people putting all sorts of spin on Cornwall county
government coming in one year later. There is no mystery.
I have read the West Briton. The delay was because of rivalry between Truro
and Bodmin both wanting county town status and both wanting to be home to
the new administration. Its as simple as that."

Graham, if my informant reads the request and responds, I shall post it here. The issues between Bodmin & Truro at that time were definitely focussed on the fact that Truro was to become a Cathedral City (construction started in 1880). Bodmin's failure to have a mainline railway station in the town also acted against its best interests.

Graham, dates not recorded because the information was not contentious. The news reports were easy to find at the Cornish Studies Library (They might be able to pinpoint the references for you) and on the front pages of the WB.
Try here for some target dates [1876-1889]. Also here if you want a read
