If there is no quorum within 30 minutes after the time fixed for a general meeting, the meeting is to be adjourned until the time and place determined by the members present and entitled to vote, provided that the notice procedures in clause 7.3 are met. If, at the adjourned meeting called under clause 7.4(c) a quorum is not present, those members who are then present and entitled to vote will be a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was called. The chair of the meeting may, with the consent of any meeting at which there is a quorum, and must if directed by the meeting, adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place. If a meeting is adjourned under clause 7.4(e), only the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place may be conducted at the adjourned meeting. The Secretary is not required to give the members notice of an adjournment or of the business to be conducted at an adjourned meeting unless a meeting is adjourned for at least 30 days.
