notice similarly before the end of the first week of the Hilary Full Term preceding the Examination, and a meeting of the Nominating Committee for such School shall be held not later than the end of the third week. The Nominating Committee in either case shall at such meeting determine what Assessors are necessary; the Chairman or other representative of the Examiners shall be summoned to the meeting, but shall not vote. The names of persons selected in accordance with the resolution of the Nominating Committee by the Examiners shall be submitted by them to the Vice-Chancellor for his approval. 3. In Easter Term of each year the Committee for the nomination of Moderators for the examination of Candidates not seeking Honours shall nominate an Assessor to act with the said Moderators in examining Candidates in the Elements of Geometry and of Algebra. The person so nominated shall be appointed by the Vice-Chancellor to hold office for two years from the first day of the Michaelmas Term next following.

4. Subject as hereinbefore provided, and in default of any appointment under any of the preceding provisions of this Section, the Examiners (under which term shall be included Masters of the Schools and Moderators) in any Examination may, with the consent of the Vice-Chancellor, request other persons, selected by them and approved by the Vice-Chancellor, to act with them in particular parts of the Examination as Assessors.

5. The provisions of Statt. Tit. VI. Sect. I. E. § 4, § 5, § 10. cl. 4, § 11, § 12, and Sect. I. F. § 7. cl. 4, respecting Examiners shall apply to Assessors appointed under the provisions of cl. 3 of this Section, but subject to the provisions of that clause relating to the mode of appointment of such Assessors.

6. The persons acting as Assessors shall make a report to the Examiners on the parts of the Examination submitted to them, but shall have no right of voting on the place of any Candidate in a Class List, nor on the question of his having satisfied the Examiners.

7. The remuneration of Assessors and of additional Examiners shall be fixed by the Vice-Chancellor and Proctors.*

* The following notice appeared in the University Gazette of June 4 and June 11, 1907: The Vice-Chancellor and Proctors desire to give notice that in all cases in which either by Statute or Decree the fixing of the remuneration of Examiners or Assessors is placed in their hands, the proper course is for the Chairman of the Examiners to send in a return to the Senior Proctor stating the number of Candidates examined; and, in the case of Assessors, the number of papers set, and whether any viva voce examination or practical work has been superintended by the Assessor. On the basis of this return the Vice-Chancellor and Proctors will fix the remuneration, and issue the necessary authority for payment to the University Chest.'
