Persons so co-opted may take part in the deliberations of the committee but may not vote.\n(c) A committee may from time to time co-opt other members who may or may not be Governors to form a sub-committee for the purpose of discharging any function or performing any duty which in the committee’s opinion would be more efficiently undertaken by way of a sub-committee provided that all acts and proceedings of a sub-committee shall only be valid and binding upon the Charity if a majority of Governors on the sub-committee vote in favour of any such act or business.\n(d) Each committee and each sub-committee may meet and may regulate its proceedings in such manner as the committee, or sub-committee, as the case may be, thinks fit subject to any directions or restrictions that may be given or made from time to time by the Governors.",
