Minutes of General Meeting not correct.

We recently held a General Meeting.

On opening the meeting an owner came in and signed the register as being present. She asked if she could speak at the meeting and was informed that no this was a special meeting to approve a by law only. She then left the meeting without withdrawing her name from the register.

A quorum was not present at the advertised time so the Chairperson advised those present that the meeting would be adjourned for 30 mins.

The meeting was reopened and a quorum was declared using the persons name on the register that had physically left and had not returned for the adjourned meeting.

When I queried this with our Strata Manager her answer was…”I think and I think everyone present accepted her as being present to reach a quorum and the Chairperson accepted her vote”!!!!!!! (even though she was not there)

My query is – When the meeting was re-opened should they have had a new register of those present and eligible to vote.

Also because there was not a quorum and yet the meeting went ahead and approved the by law where do we stand??

Thank you for any help in this matter.
