Clause 56

No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum of members or delegates is present. The quorum necessary for such transaction shall be one-fifth or fifty of all members or delegates qualified to vote, whichever is the less.

If, within thirty minutes after the time fixed for a general meeting, the members or delegates present are not sufficient to form a quorum, such meeting shall be considered as dissolved if convened on the requisition of the members or delegates; in all other cases it shall be postponed to a date at least seven days and not more than fourteen days later, at the same time and place, and the business to be transacted at such postponed meeting shall be the same as, and no other than, that proposed for the original date of the meeting; and if at the postponed meeting a quorum is not present within thirty minutes from the time fixed for the meeting, the members or delegates present shall form a quorum, except that a general meeting with such reduced quorum shall not have the power to amend the by-laws and that any resolution passed at the meeting shall not be valid unless it is passed with a majority of two-thirds of the members or delegates present.
