motion defeated

[Guest mark]

when a motion is defeated at an AGM can you reintroduce the same motion again to the membership to revote?

Not at the same meeting, but it could be reintroduced at a later meeting.

Shouldn't that be "session" (p 111).  I only bring that up because I was recently at a convention that declared that a Motion to Reconsider was out of order because the original motion was passed at a different meeting on the previous day but within the same session and the language on p 316 l 29-30 would have made the decision worthy of a Point of Order*.

 

 

*The maker of the motion changed their motion to Amend Something Previously Adopted.

Yes, technically the rule is that a motion which is defeated may not be reintroduced until a later session. I did not make the distinction as the OP's question did not appear to be regarding a multiple-day session.
