Article 6
United Kingdom
The opinion of the Committee may be sought by means of a written procedure at the initiative of the Bank and with the prior agreement of the Chairperson.
Where a proposal is submitted through written procedure, the Bank shall submit it together with all relevant supporting documents. If, within 21 calendar days following the submission of a proposal, a Member State representative has not cast a negative vote, he/she shall be deemed to have voted in favour of the proposal.
If discussion at a meeting of the Committee is specifically requested by one of its members not later than five working days before expiry of the 21 calendar days period referred to in the paragraph 2, the proposal shall be submitted in the next scheduled meeting of the Committee. In exceptional cases of particular urgency, the Bank may then request that an extraordinary meeting of the Committee be convened by the Chairperson pursuant to Article 2.
