quorum
Note that qualificado modifies quorum. It's slightly awkward in English to talk about "clauses that require a voting quorum that meets the requirements" - I'd just talk about "clauses that require a quorum", it being unlikely that a quorum is needed to do something other than vote.

Qualified majority voting
Sugestão:
"Qualified majority voting
The Council of Ministers has two ways of taking decisions - unanimity, when everyone has to be in agreement - and qualified majority voting - a system of weighted votes.
QMV is the most common method of decision-making, used in all but the most sensitive issues.
Issues which are decided on by QMV are also voted on by the European Parliament. This means that the council and parliament act together in co-decision."
