18 December 2010 Chairman’s Casting Votes

The casting vote is given by chairman to decide an issue when votes on each side are equal. It is a vote of a chairman of a meeting, which he can use in the event of a tie in voting. A casting vote is therefore a vote which is decisive in that it turns or titles the scale on one side or another {R.v. Bradford Metropolitan City Council (1989) 3 All ER 156 (CA)}.

The same will apply to all committee meeting.
