Conduct of business in Council
18 Conduct of business in Council
A question that comes before a meeting of the Council will be decided by the majority of members present at the meeting and voting on the question.
The person presiding at a meeting of the Council has a vote and, in the case of an equality of votes, a casting vote.
A quorum of the Council is constituted by one half of the total number of members of the Council (ignoring any fraction resulting from the
division) plus 1, and no business may be transacted at a meeting of the
Council unless a quorum is present.
The Chancellor or, in his or her absence a member of the Council elected by those present, will preside at meetings of the
Council.
