Quorum of the Committee

In view of the increased activity on the part of the Committee, reference was made to the possibility of the Committee having inquorate meetings with a composition of just five Members. It was suggested that to avoid this, the composition of the Committee should be increased by one to six Members. It was also suggested that the sixth position be allocated to the immediate past Chief Commoner for part of the year and then the Chief Commoner Designate, once elected in October, for the remainder of the year. Members supported the suggestions.
