Bye Laws
Bye LawsBetween the year 1703 when the above Fundamental Laws and Ordinances were approved, and the year 1830, various resolutions of the Court, having the effect of Bye Laws for the governance of the business of the Company having been passed, some of these resolutions were of a conflicting character, and consequently a new set of Bye Laws were framed and consolidated. Again in the year 1857 a similar course was considered expedient. The Consolidated Bye Laws do not, however, make any alterations in the fundamental portions of the Charters or Ordinances.
