Universities Act 1825
United Kingdom legislation
The Universities Act 1825[1] (6 Geo. 4. c. 97, long title An Act for the better Preservation of the Peace and good Order in the Universities of England) is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom which provides for officers of police constable status within Cambridge and Oxford universities. Sections 3 and 4 have been repealed.[2] In 2003, the University of Oxford closed its police force to avoid the complexity and costs of complying with new standards.[3]
