ccomp: clausal complement
A clausal complement of a verb or adjective is a dependent clause which is a core argument. That is, it functions like an object of the verb, or adjective.

Such clausal complements may be finite or nonfinite. However, if the subject of the clausal complement is controlled (that is, must be the same as the higher subject or object, with no other possible interpretation) the appropriate relation is xcomp.

The key difference here is that, while it is possible to interpret the first sentence as meaning that the one who forbids is not the one who will draw, in the second sentence it is clear that the
subject of administer can only be King. This is what distinguishes ccomp and xcomp.
