Land Economy Tripos: Notice

The regulations for the Land Economy Tripos (Statutes and Ordinances, p. 310) have been amended as set out below. The purpose of the amendment is to impose restrictions on the papers that may be taken in Part IB of the Tripos by a candidate who has previously obtained honours in the Law Tripos; this is necessary in order to ensure that candidates cannot offer papers covering the same material in successive examinations. The Board of Land Economy are satisfied that no candidate's preparation for the examination in 1999 is adversely affected by this amendment. The regulations have been amended, with immediate effect, as follows:

Regulation 14(b).

By renumbering proviso (2) as (5) and by inserting the following as provisos (2)-(4):

(2) a candidate who has previously offered Paper 11 of the Law Tripos shall not offer Paper 8 of the Land Economy Tripos;
(3) a candidate who has previously offered both Paper 4 and Paper 10 of the Law Tripos shall not offer Paper 9 of the Land Economy Tripos;
(4) a candidate who has previously offered all three of Papers 4, 10, and 11 of the Law Tripos shall offer a further paper chosen from Groups II and IV in place of the paper from Group III that he or she would otherwise be required to offer under sub-paragraph (iii) above;
