Temporary Reduction in the Quorum

The Barbican Residential Committee (BRC) had experienced difficulty in recruiting non-resident Members and was currently carrying six vacancies, out of the required eleven, leaving future meetings at a high risk of being inquorate. The Court was recommended to consider a temporary reduction in the quorum of the BRC, from four to three non-resident Members, to ensure that a quorum could be achieved at the scheduled September and December 2019 BRC meetings.

 

A Member observed that the temporary reduction to the quorum was currently open-ended and proposed an amendment to insert a fixed date on which the quorum would revert to the norm.

 

Amendment – That a temporary reduction to the quorum of the Barbican Residential Committee, from four to three non-resident Members, be agreed until 31 December 2019, to ensure a quorum at the September and December 2019 meetings.

 

Upon the amendment being put, the Lord Mayor declared it to be carried.

 

Resolved – That a temporary reduction to the quorum of the Barbican Residential Committee, from four to three non-resident Members, be agreed until 31 December 2019, to ensure a quorum at the September and December 2019 meetings.
