REGULATIONS FOR EXAMINATIONS: NOTICE BY THE GENERAL BOARD

The General Board give notice that, on the recommendation of the Faculty Board or other authority concerned, they have approved amendments of the regulations for certain University examinations, as follows:

Examination in Development Studies for the M.Phil. Degree (one-year course)

The regulations for the examination in Development Studies for the M.Phil. Degree (one-year course) (Statutes and Ordinances, p. 470) have been amended as set out below. The purpose of these amendments is to increase the maximum number of subjects that may be set in Group 2 from twelve to sixteen, and to allow the Development Studies Committee greater flexibility in announcing those subjects. The regulations have been amended, with effect from 1 October 1999, as follows:

Regulation 2.

By replacing the last two sentences by the following:

Group 2 shall contain not more than sixteen other subjects which, with the approval of the General Board and of the Degree Committee responsible for the other examination concerned, may include subjects taken from any of the examinations for the degree specified in the Schedule to these regulations. The Development Studies Committee shall have power to give notice of additional subjects not later than the division of the Michaelmas Term, provided that the total number of subjects in Group 2 in any year shall not exceed sixteen. In publishing the list and any additions to it, the Committee shall announce the form of examination for each subject.

The Development Studies Committee shall have power to withdraw any subject of Group 2 upon notice given in the Reporter, not later than the division of the Michaelmas Term; the Secretary of the Committee shall notify candidates of the withdrawal of any subject for which they have entered.
