Procedure: quorum of the committee of estates
Quorum of the committee at home

The estates, considering that through the absence of the quorum of the committee the service may happen to be retarded, do therefore declare that in absence of any of the estates or quorum formerly appointed, that any seven of the whole number without distinction2 shall make up a quorum, and ordain that intimation be made of all meetings by a macer or according to the act, and that the same be made alike to all the estates.

  1. NAS. PA8/1, f.136v.
  2. i.e. the quorum need not contain a specific number of each estate.
