(3) The Academic Council may propose to the Board the draft of any Statute to be passed by the Board and such draft shall be considered by the Board at its next meeting: Provided that the Academic Council shall not propose the draft of any Statute or of any amendment of a Statute affecting the status, powers, or constitution of any authority of the University, until such authority has been given an opportunity to express its opinion upon the proposal, and any opinion so expressed shall be considered by the Board.
3. (4) The Board may approve any such draft as is referred to in sub-section
4. (3) and pass the Statute or reject it or return it to the Academic Council for reconsideration, either in whole or in part, together with any amendments which it may suggest.
