If events arise that could prevent several assembly members from physically attending council meetings, a council may permit individual assembly members to attend virtually, provided the quorum is reached in accordance with Article 159 paragraph 1 of the Federal Constitution.
An assembly member may attend council meetings virtually only if their physical attendance is prevented by an official order relating to the events set out in paragraph 1 or due to force majeure. The assembly member shall inform the Council President in good time.
Assembly members who attend virtually shall have the same rights as those who attend physically, with the exception that they are not permitted to participate in elections and meetings in camera (in accordance with Article 4 paragraph 2).
Votes shall not be held again if assembly members are unable to cast their votes on technical grounds.
The council and the public shall be informed as to which assembly members have attended meetings virtually.
