King and Queen's college of physicians incorporated by King William and Queen Mary:
Lord chancellor and chief judges shall be visitors of said college of physicians.

XXXVIII. And whereas the late King William and Queen Mary, by their charter, dated at Dublin on the fifteenth day of December, in the fourth year of their reign, did incorporate the said president and fellows of the college of physicians, by the name of the president and fellows of the King and Queen's college of physicians in Ireland, and did thereby appoint sundry rules and regulations, and vest several powers in the said president and fellows, for the due regulation and government of the said college, and did thereby appoint the lord chancellor, or lord keeper of the great seal, the lord chief justice of the King's bench, the lord chief justice of the common pleas, and the lord chief baron of the court of exchequer, all of Ireland, for the time being, to be for ever thereafter the visitors of the said college and corporation; and doubts have arisen how far the said appointment of the said persons as visitors of the said college is valid in law, and it would tend much to preserve the peace and good order of the said college, and to promote the good purposes intended by this act, if visitors of the said college were duly appointed; be it enacted by the authority aforesaid, That the right honourable John earl of Clare, lord high chancellor of Ireland, the right honourable Arthur lord Kilwarden, lord chief justice of the court of King's bench in Ireland, the right honourable Hugh lord viscount Carleton, lord chief justice of the common pleas in Ireland, and the right honourable Barry lord Yelverton, lord chief baron of the court of exchequer in Ireland, shall be, and they are hereby constituted the present visitors of the said college or corporation; and that the lord chancellor or lord keeper of the great seal of Ireland, the lord chief justice of the King's bench, the lord chief justice of the common pleas, and the lord chief baron of the exchequer of Ireland, for the time being, shall be, from time to time, and for ever hereafter, the visitors of the said college and corporation.
