Procedures of the Board
7 Procedures of the Board
A quorum of the Board consists of one half of the members of the
Board (ignoring any fraction resulting from the division) plus 1.
The presiding member of the Board will preside at meetings of the
Board or, in the absence of that member, a member chosen by those present will preside.
A decision supported by the majority of the votes cast by members present at a meeting of the Board is a decision of the Board.
Each member present at a meeting of the Board has 1 vote on any question arising for decision and, if the votes are equal, the member presiding at the meeting may exercise a casting vote.
A person nominated by the Minister may attend any meeting of the
Board (however the person is not a member of the Board, is not entitled to vote on any question before the Board and cannot otherwise compromise the independence of the Board).
The Board must have accurate minutes kept of its proceedings.
Subject to this Act, the Board may determine its own proceedings.
