If consensus cannot be reached, the issue will be raised again at the next meeting only if the majority of members (51%) vote to do so, taking into account the timeliness of the decision. If a decision is deemed necessary to be made before the next meeting, a vote will be taken at the first meeting in which an item needing a decision is presented.

If timeliness is not an issue, the issue will be raised again at the next meeting with an attempt to reach consensus. If a decision is still not reached at the second meeting, a vote will be taken.
