FAQ
If no quorum is present, the meeting can still be conducted however, the business will need to be held over until later when a quorum is present. Without a quorum, no business can be conducted.
Robert's Rules (Section -16) state that “the minutes should contain mainly a record of what was done at the meeting, not what was said by the members.” Minutes are not transcripts of meetings; rather, the document contains a record of actions taken by the body, organized by the meeting's order of business (agenda).
This document needs to be signed by: or another person who is authorized to take minutes and/or record official corporate action. There is no requirement that the signature be witnessed or notarized.
No quorum means no business can be conducted (no motions can be passed!) Reading of minutes may be waived (thank goodness!!)
If the quorum is not present within half an hour of the time set for the meeting to begin, then the following options will be applicable: The meeting will be adjourned, and it shall be held on the same day and at the same time next week, or any other date and time as the Board may determine.
2. What should be excluded in the meeting minutes? Avoid switching tenses in your writing. Avoid recording the debate; just record the outcome. Avoid making personal observations or opinions. Avoid verbatim quotes. Avoid letting the meeting move on if you're confused.
Minutes of meetings should preferably include the following information: Name of the organisation. Date, time and location of the meeting. Confirmation that a quorum was present. List of people present/apologies. Any resolutions passed or delegated.
