Business/Commerce (general)
This is the first step in a meeting agenda for a union meeting. I understand that a quorum is the required number of participants needed to vote and make decisions, but how would one phrase this in UK English? "Review of meeting quorum"? "Quorum meeting review"?
Thanks!

: Zero hits on Google for "quorate meeting review." Whence the CL of "5"?

Verification of quorum / Confirmation of quorum
It sounds like a confirmation (required by meeting protocol) that the requirements for an official meeting (i.e., "quorum") have indeed been met.

Your references are useful in that they not only confirm my suggestion, but offer two other equally viable alternatives. I also agree with you that "Quorum" all by itself would work as a section header. Thank you, Robert.
