My understanding is that notice has to be given to committee members and then posted on the notice board 3 days prior to the meeting. No requirement to formally advise other owners.
if the notice is not provided 3 days prior, lets say 1 day does this invalidate the meting?

The way notice is given depends on the size of the block. Schedule 2 sets out the parameters (below) but buildings of less than 100 lots only require notice to be given on the noticeboard.
If proper notice wasn’t given, you’d have grounds to go to Fair Trading and NCAT and have the whole meeting, and decisions made at it, declared invalid.
