New South Wales regulation
This by-law repeals earlier rules for three named trust funds and sets how those funds operate at The New South Wales Institute of Technology. It prescribes who may receive prizes, medals and scholarships tied to the Building, Architecture and Chemistry degree courses and allows donations for library books. Decisions about eligibility, subjects, timing and the number of awards are left to the Statutory Trustees, so the instrument mainly affects students, the Institute and the Trustees who administer the funds.
