Procedure
34.Paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 states that the ISC may determine its own procedure, subject to the following: the Chair has a casting vote if on a matter there is an equality of voting; the Chair may appoint another member of the ISC to chair proceedings in that person’s absence; the quorum of the ISC is 3.
35.Sub-paragraph (6) states that the ISC may hear evidence on oath. The general provision in paragraph 2(1) of Schedule 1, permitting the ISC to determine its own procedure, allows the ISC itself to decide who should administer oaths on its behalf.
