📜 Official Text

(1) Save as otherwise provided, all questions in either House (or a joint sitting) are decided by a majority of members present and voting, excluding the presiding officer, who has a casting vote only in case of a tie. (2) A House may act despite any vacancy in its membership, and proceedings remain valid even if it's later found someone not entitled to sit or vote took part. (3)-(4) Until Parliament provides otherwise, the quorum for a House meeting is one-tenth of its total membership; without quorum, the presiding officer must adjourn or suspend the meeting.
