(2) The quorum for any other committee must be determined by the relevant establishing authority.

 

(3) Despite subitems (1) and (2), if the convenors of the parties in the Authority or any committee so agree, a smaller number may constitute a quorum for an urgent meeting of the Authority or that committee, as the case may be.
