The Committee would 'consider all matters that arise in connection with College Buildings, College property and finance, College servants and general administration'.

Originally known as the Finance and General Business Committee, 1931-1932.

Before 1987 files were arranged by Tutor. These are divided into two groups:

(1) The integrated files of Ramsey, Vernon-Jones, Salter, Scott and Turner, 1912 - c.1961 (arranged by P. Fitzsimons in 1980).

(2) Then separate runs of files for Babbage, Bennett, Stevens, Grubb, Kolbert, Howarth, Reynolds, Deakin, Turner, Duffy, Field.

Searches before 1987 therefore need to be conducted via the name of Tutor (obtainable for each student from the Admissions Register), or last tutor in the cases of a transfer:

A.S. Ramsey, 1912-1927
V.J. Vernon-Jones, 1927-1945
F.R. Salter, 1927-1945

D.M. Turner, 1979-1983
J.E. Field, 1974-1985
E. Duffy, 1980-1993
