Does this also apply to a key for the common property pedestrian gate?
Is the Owners Corporation responsible for the main gate common property electric motor automatic control and integrated electronic circuit board controller? If yes, why is the remote control the Owners responsibility?

The quorum for an executive committee meeting is at least half of the members. A sensible option to avoid quorum issues is to appoint ‘alternatives’ for each committee member at the first or second executive meeting. (see SSMA Schedule 3, Part 1, 3: Acting members of the executive committee). This person can be an existing member of the executive committee or anyone else nominated by that executive member. However, the nomination must be accepted by the other members. Once accepted the nominated alternative will be valid for subsequent meetings where the nominee can count as part of the quorum. This is a useful tool for avoiding having meetings adjourned for lack of a quorum.
Source: SSMA Schedule 3, Part 1,3:
3 Acting members of the executive committee
(1) A member of the executive committee may, with the consent of the executive committee, appoint an owner or company nominee of a corporation which is an owner to act in his or her place as a member at any meeting of the executive committee.
(2) The owner or company nominee so appointed is, while so acting as a member, taken to be a member.
(3) An owner or company nominee of a corporation may be so appointed whether or not he or she is a member of the executive committee already.
(4) If a person so appointed is a member of the executive committee the person may, at any meeting of the executive committee, separately vote in the person’s capacity as such a member and on behalf of the member in whose place the person has been appointed to act.
