Bill Summary

Relates to the minimum requirements for a quorum; there shall be no less than a majority of the total number of members of the commission in order to transact any business, perform any duty or exercise any power.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 11 of the Public Service Law to require that a majority of the total number of members of the commission, rather than a majority of the duly appointed commissioners, constitute a quorum to transact any business, perform any duty, or exercise any power of the commission. The bill specifies that no less than a majority of the total number of members is required to take such actions. This change ensures that a larger proportion of the full commission membership is present to make decisions.
