Amending Statutes for Hughes Hall: Correction

Further to the Notice dated 8 May 2025 (Reporter, 6783, 2024–25, p. 553), the proposed Statutes document originally posted on the Hughes Hall website was found to contain errors. A corrected version of the document, posted on 19 May 2025, is now available on the College website at https://www.hughes.cam.ac.uk/about/policies-and-documents/statutes-revisions/. The document submitted to the University for consideration was correct and unaffected.
