Minimum number of people required for a meeting (6)

I believe the answer is:

quorum

(Other definitions for quorum that I've seen before include "Number of members required for legal meeting" , "Minimum number needed to take decisions" , "Sufficient number present" , "Minimal number required to conduct business" , "Number of members required for lawful committee decisions" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
