Grievance Hearing. The grievance committee thus designated shall meet upon the date selected pursuant to the procedure described above, and shall consider and attempt to resolve the dispute brought before it. The hearing shall be conducted in an orderly fashion, but rules of evidence and technicalities of procedure shall not be controlling. It is the intent of this Basic Agreement that the committee members shall use their good faith, best judgment and common sense, as persons experienced in the motion picture and television industry, in attempting to resolve the dispute brought before it. No matter shall be considered by the grievance committee unless a quorum is present. A quorum shall consist of six (6) members. If any four (4) members of the committee shall agree on a decision, such decision shall be final and binding upon the parties to the proceedings and any interpretation of this Basic Agreement made in such decision shall also be binding upon the writer or writers involved. If no decision is agreed upon, then in any subsequent arbitration or other proceeding, no reference shall be made to the grievance proceeding or to any statements or discussions therein, or to the failure of the grievance committee to settle the dispute.
