became the Professor of Jurisprudence in 1936
Arthur Lehman Goodhart became Oxford's Professor of Jurisprudence in 1931, not 1936.
Full reasoning
University of Cambridge and University College Oxford sources both place Arthur Lehman Goodhart's appointment to the Oxford Chair of Jurisprudence in 1931. The Squire Law Library biography says his academic career was "crowned by appointment to the Chair of Jurisprudence at Oxford in 1931," and University College Oxford's own archival catalogue says he "was elected Professor of Jurisprudence at Oxford" in 1931. So the year 1936 in the article is incorrect.

the independence of the Royal Bank of New Zealand
New Zealand's central bank is the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, not the 'Royal Bank of New Zealand.'
Full reasoning
This misnames the institution. New Zealand's central bank is the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ). The Central Banking award coverage about Goodhart discusses his role in the development of the 'New Zealand model' and repeatedly refers to the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ). An official Reserve Bank page likewise identifies the institution as the Reserve Bank of New Zealand – Te Pūtea Matua. So calling it the "Royal Bank of New Zealand" is incorrect.
