it is proposed that the definitions section of the Constitution is changed to:

Resolution A resolution of the Board refers to section 6.3 of this document
N-1 Majority refers to section 6.2 of this document

and that the following section is added:

 6 Making Decisions
   6.1 The board has two ways to make decisions - N-1 and Majority
   6.2 N-1 is defined as a majority of the trustees with 0 or 1 trustees disagreeing and is only required for use where defined by the constitution or legal requirement
   6.3 For normal decisions, each trustee can vote one of three ways: Yes, No or Abstain
     6.3.1 Each No vote vetoes a single Yes vote.
     6.3.2 For a decision to pass, it must have a total of 4 Yes votes.
     6.3.3 As such, a decision cannot pass with two or more No votes.
     6.3.4 Trustees can change their vote at any time up until the decision is formally passed or denied.
