In this case the reason why there was no quorum was because only one person attended, and that person attended in their own right. As silly as it sounds, if they had held a proxy from someone else, then there would have been a quorum, because effectively two people would have been “in attendance”. Or they could have appointed someone else as proxy for one of their lots.
Note that the person attending can’t appoint themselves as their own proxy.
If you go back to the meaning of “meeting”, you can’t have a meeting with just one person. So as a general proposition a quorum needs to be more than one, subject to whatever a constitution/other governing document says, how many people are on an EC etc.
However, it is a moot point because the result would have been the same, albeit it is worth raising because of the penalties that have been applied.
Kangaroo raises some good points, why didn’t sancataldo attend, or send in a proxy? What is the levy for?
