  1. The voters at a provincial chapter are:
    1. regional priors;
    2. vicars provincial elected in accordance with n. 389;
    3. conventual priors; if the prior cannot attend on account of sickness or another grave reason accepted by the prior pro­vincial, the subprior may take his place.
    4. socii of priors going to the chapter, in accordance with n. 490;
    5. delegates of the brothers, in accordance with nn. 497-501;
    6. a delegate of a non-prioral house with at least four brothers with active voting rights in the territory of any na­tion where there is no other house not another convent or another house of the same province. (B, n. 263, P, n. 492)
    7. a prior provincial who immediately before the chapter completed his term of office in that province.
  2. If the voters at a provincial chapter, elected in ac­cordance with the constitutions, are fewer than twenty, the statute of the province may make provision for extra voters. It is obliged to do this if there are fewer than ten voters. These, of whom there may not be more than three, are to be constituted such by election and not by personal entitlement.
