Markus Bell · Answer 1

In the House of Representatives, the quorum was amended down to one-fifth by the House of Representatives (Quorum) Act 1989, which means the quorum of the current House of 150 MPs is 30 MPs ... It is considered disorderly to call attention to quorum when one exists and members or senators who do so can be punished.
