Mr. Dave Walsh:

Three members are required to form a general quorum to make decisions. Obviously, there are some cases for which we could increase that requirement to a full available board. For smaller-scale applications and for the sake of expediency, two persons can form a quorum. This was the case, for example, when we received high levels of appeals in the late 2000s.
