9 Transaction of business outside meetings or by telecommunication
The Board may transact business—
by circulating papers among all trustees, or
at a meeting at which all or some trustees participate by audio link or audio visual link, but only if a trustee who speaks at the meeting can be heard by the other trustees.
If the Board transacts business under subsection (1)(a)—
papers may be circulated electronically, and
a written resolution with the written approval of 6 or more trustees—
is taken to be a decision of the Board made at a meeting of the Board, and
must be recorded in the minutes of the meeting of the Board.
Each trustee has the same voting rights as the trustee has at an ordinary meeting of the Board for the purposes of—
a meeting held under subsection (1)(b), or
the approval of a resolution under subsection (2)(b).
