Not aware of any limit on agenda items (Except set time for meetings in standing orders) but usually an EO meeting is called to discuss items that for whatever reason cannot wait for the next council meeting.

There is no limit on the number of items, but the items should be specific to the situation that has triggered the EGM. So fo example items that appear on every normal scheduled monthly meeting should not be included, for example approving the mins of the previous full council meeting, approving expenditure on stationary etc
