	FOX, Sir William - 1966 Encyclopaedia of New Zealand
		These views were not acceptable in the Assembly of 1860; but, after he had been returned at a general election for Rangitikei, Fox carried by one vote, on 5 July 1861, a motion of no confidence in the Stafford Ministry, and a week later formed a Ministry of his own.
		It was known that the Colonial Office was drafting a New Zealand Constitution Bill, but Edward Gibbon Wakefield and his associates suspected that they might not like it and Fox was drawn into their constitutional discussions.
		But Fox introduced and passed the first New Zealand University Act in 1870 and was in charge in 1871 of the first colonial Education Bill, though this was abandoned at the committee stage.
