​KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Ordinary Resolution


An ordinary resolution is a company decision passed by a simple majority of votes cast by members entitled to vote.


This means that more than 50 percent of the votes must support the resolution.


Ordinary resolutions are used where the Companies Act 2006 or the company’s *articles of association do not require a higher voting threshold.


They are commonly used for routine company matters such as appointing directors or approving accounts.


An ordinary resolution differs from a *special resolution, which requires a larger majority.
