Article D7124-45 of the French General Code of Local Authorities

The Customary Grand Council may only validly deliberate if half of its members are present, including members taking part in the debates by means of a telephone or audiovisual conference, or having given a mandate.

If the quorum is not reached, the Customary Grand Council is reconvened on the next working day on the same agenda. It then sits validly regardless of the number of members present or represented.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article D7124-45

Le grand conseil coutumier ne peut valablement délibérer que si la moitié de ses membres est présente, y compris les membres prenant part aux débats au moyen d’une conférence téléphonique ou audiovisuelle, ou ayant donné un mandat.


Si le quorum n’est pas atteint, le grand conseil coutumier est à nouveau convoqué, le premier jour ouvrable qui suit, sur le même ordre du jour. Il siège alors valablement quel que soit le nombre des membres présents ou représentés.
