`2. A candidate in any examination [single dagger sign] may, through his or her society, apply to the Proctors to certify that the candidate will be or has been prevented by illness or other urgent cause from presenting himself or herself at the appointed time or place for any part of an examination (a candidate is deemed to have presented himself or herself for a written paper if he or she was present in the place designated for the examination and had the opportunity to see the question paper there). Each application for consideration by the Proctors must be submitted in writing by the Senior Tutor or other proper officer of the candidate's society. Sufficient evidence must be sent in support of the application. Where illness is pleaded, a medical certificate from a qualified medical practitioner must be sent, and this certificate must specify, with dates, the bearing of the illness on the candidate's attendance at the examination. Where it is proposed that a candidate is to be examined in a place or at a time other than that appointed for the examination, written permission must be obtained from the Proctors for the candidate to be examined in that place or at that time, together with their approval of the name of a Master of Arts of the University, or any other person who in their opinion seems suitable, who is prepared to invigilate. The Proctors may authorise the examiners either (a) to examine the candidate at another place or time under such arrangements as the Proctors deem appropriate, or (b) provided that the work that the candidate has submitted is of sufficient merit, to act as if he or she had completed that part of the examination. If the application is granted, it shall be the duty of the Proctors to send a written authorisation promptly to the chairman of examiners of the relevant examination and to inform the candidate's society and the Clerk of the Schools.
Where the Proctors have given permission for an examination to be held in a place or at a time other than that appointed for the examination, the invigilator or another person approved by the Proctors should attend the Schools at least fifteen minutes before the examination begins, to receive the examination paper and any necessary writing materials from the Clerk of the Schools, and should bring a letter addressed to the chairman of the examiners concerned containing the name of the candidate, the subject in which the candidate is being examined, and the authorisation of the Proctors (if a copy of this has not already been sent to the Clerk of the Schools). The invigilator should sign the list kept by the Clerk of the Schools of examination papers which are issued in this way, and should verify that the details recorded on the list are correct. The candidate's work must be handed as soon as possible after the time appointed for the collection of papers to the Clerk of the Schools, who will make the appropriate entry in his or her register. The Clerk will obtain a receipt when forwarding work done outside the Schools.
A candidate, through his or her society, may within fourteen days of the date of the Proctors' decision whether or not to grant his or her application appeal against that decision in writing to the Chairman of the Educational Policy and Standards Committee (who may nominate another member of the committee, other than one of the Proctors, to adjudicate the appeal).
If after receiving the Proctors' authorisation the examiners agree to act as if the candidate had completed the part of the examination concerned, and the examination is one in which Honours may be awarded, the examiners may (subject always to the approval of the Proctors) adopt one of the following courses:'.
9 Ibid., p. 1049, l. 32, after `Proctors.' insert:
`In accordance with the provisions of regulation (v) of the Proctors' Regulations concerning Conduct at Examinations, if a candidate fails to submit a thesis (or other written exercise) without prior permission, the Proctors may after making due enquiries into the circumstances permit the candidate to remain in the examination and to submit the work late under arrangements similar to those set out in sub-clauses (a)–(c) above. A candidate or his or her society may within fourteen days of the date of the Proctors' decision appeal in writing to the Chairman of the Educational Policy and Standards Committee (who may nominate another member of the committee, other than one of the Proctors, to adjudicate the appeal).'
10 Ibid., p. 1050, l. 33, after `fee.' insert:
`A candidate or his or her society may within fourteen days of the date of the Proctors' decision appeal in writing to the Chairman of the Educational Policy and Standards Committee (who may nominate another member of the committee, other than one of the Proctors, to adjudicate the appeal).'
