94(1)If the number of members who, by reason of the provisions of this Act, are required to withdraw from a meeting is such that at that meeting the remaining members are not of sufficient number to constitute a quorum, despite any other general or special Act, the remaining members shall be deemed to constitute a quorum if there are not fewer than three.
94(2)If there are insufficient remaining members to constitute what is deemed to be a quorum under subsection (1), the council, local board or committee may apply to the Minister for an order authorizing it to consider, to discuss and to vote on the matter with respect to which the conflict of interest has arisen.
94(3)On an application under subsection (2), the Minister may make an order that authorizes the council, local board or committee or certain members of the council, local board or committee to consider, discuss and vote on the matter raised in the application as if a conflict of interest did not exist, subject to the conditions and directions that the Minister considers appropriate.
