There is an important difference in meaning here. If we look at the paragraph entitled “Reduced Quorum”, we read: “[...] provided that at least three members are present, including one member of the opposition, and provided that if no member of the opposition is present 10 minutes after the designated start of the meeting, the meeting may proceed.” Then we come to the section on meetings outside the parliamentary precinct. That means there would be no member of the opposition 10 minutes after the start of the meeting. I say that we must have three committee members at the start of the meeting, including a member of the opposition.
