Paragraph 7 Quorum

Subject to sub-paragraph (2), no business shall be transacted at a meeting of the committee unless at least one-quarter of the membership of the committee is present.

Where more than one-quarter of the committee members become disqualified at the same time, then, until the number of members in office is increased to not less than three-quarters of the whole number of members, the quorum of the committee shall be determined by reference to the number of members remaining qualified instead of by reference to the whole number of members.

Upon the attention of the chairperson being called by a member or duly appointed officer to the fact that there is not a quorum present, the chairperson shall declare the meeting of the committee at an end, and the names of those who are present and those who are absent shall be recorded on the minutes of the committee.
