There must be a quorum at a general meeting before any motion (including election of an executive committee) can be voted on. A quorum is:

a) one-quarter of the people entitled to vote or b) owners entitled to vote holding one-quarter or more of

the total unit entitlements. If the quorum calculated under a) or b) is less than two persons, the quorum shall be two persons entitled to vote on the motion [Schedule 2, Part 2, Clause 12].

If a quorum has not assembled within 30 minutes of the scheduled start time, the meeting must be put off for at least 7 days. The person presiding sets the date and time for the adjourned meeting. If there is no quorum within 30 minutes of the time fixed for the adjourned meeting, it can go ahead. The quorum is then the owners and proxies present who are entitled to vote [Schedule 2, Part 2, Clause 12].
