2 Authorisation to make appointments.

2.—(1) The Governing Body may, notwithstanding anything contained in any other enactment (including any charter or statute of the College), but subject to subsections (2) and (3) of this section, make appointments to the following offices in the College:

(a) College Lecturer,

(b) Assistant Lecturer.

(2) An appointment under this section shall be made for such period not exceeding one year and on such terms as to remuneration and other matters as may be determined by the Governing Body.

(3)

(c) The Government may, at any time before the 31st day of March, 1962, by order declare that the specified day for the purposes of paragraph (a) of this subsection is the 31st day of March, 1963, and, if the Government by order so declare, then, subject to paragraph (d) of this subsection, the reference in paragraph (a) of this subsection to the specified day shall be construed as a reference to the 31st day of March, 1963.
