Henry III. had promised on the 2nd of May that the See also:state of his See also:realm should be rectified and reformed by twenty-four counsellors who were to meet at Oxford for this purpose five See also:weeks later. Twelve of these counsellors were chosen by the king, and twelve by the earls and barons. When the parliament met each twelve of these twenty-four See also:chose two from the other twelve, and this See also:committee of four was empowered, subject to the approval of the whole See also:body, to elect a king's See also:council of fifteen members. The twenty-four then provided that the new council should meet three times a See also:year in parliaments to which twelve commissioners were to be summoned to discuss the affairs of the realm on behalf of the whole community. Another body of twenty-four was appointed to treat of an aid, which was probably the aid which had been demanded earlier in the year. On the 22nd of June the king appointed new wardens of some of the castles which were then in the custody of his Poitevin See also:half-See also:brothers and their See also:friends, and on the same See also:day he gave directions that the twenty-four should proceed with the See also:work of reform, and the committee of four with the See also:election of the council of fifteen. Meanwhile it was provided that the sheriffs and the three See also:great See also:officers of state were to hold See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office for a year only, and to render accounts at the expiration of their terms of office. On the 24th of See also:August in pursuance of a See also:provision by the parliament the king directed four knights in each See also:county to inquire into the trespasses and wrongs which had been committed by sheriffs, bailiffs and other officials. For many of the grievances of the barons the Oxford parliament provided no remedy; and they were only partly redressed by the Provisions of See also:Westminster in the autumn of 1259. The king declared his See also:adhesion to the Provisions of Oxford on the 18th of See also:October by proclamations in See also:English, See also:French and Latin, but in 1261, having obtained a papal See also:dispensation from his See also:oath of observance, he entirely repudiated them. The barons, however, insisted on his See also:obligation
to observe the provisions, and the dispute was eventually referred to the See also:arbitration of See also:- LOUIS

No See also:official See also:record of the Provisions of Oxford has been preserved, and our knowledge of them is chiefly derived from a See also:series of notes and extracts entered in the See also:Annals of See also:Burton See also:Abbey, which are probably neither exhaustive nor in correct See also:- ORDER
