I am surprised any legislation is needed for this. I would have thought
that a meeting by video conference is a "meeting". After all this allows
broader access to meetings than a physical room of limited size does.
When President of the ACS I chaired a meeting of our National Council by
video conference.
Also it is odd that the Federal Government would be keen for other
organizations to have virtual meetings, when it doesn't want to do so
itself. The National Cabinet was postponed because the Prime Minister
did not want to have it without his staff beside him physically in the
room. Also use of virtual or hybrid meetings of parliament has been limited.
