New Acts of Parliament Extend Oxford Governance
The act to extend Oxford University government and reform the colleges received royal assent. Commissioners oversee until 1857, with Hebdomadal Board replaced by a Hebdomadal Council. Oaths on matriculation end, common law applies, and stamp duties on degrees are abolished when Treasury provisions are met. The Sunday liquor-sale provisions from Victoria 79 extend to ban earlier openings.
