The statutes are the constitution by which the College is governed. The original statutes of Gonville Hall reflected the intentions of its founders, Gonville and Bateman. They were superseded by the statutes introduced by Dr Caius during his refoundation in the sixteenth centruy. These remained in force largely unchanged until the nineteenth century, when the governance of the University and the Colleges was reformed by the government-appointed University Commissions (c.1860-1926). The College is currently governed under the statutes made by the University Commissioners in 1925, approved by the King in Council in 1926, and amended to 1996. Modern reforms of the statutes are passed by special vote of the governing body of the College, subject to the approval of the University and the Queen in Council.
