Thanks for the responses so far. To clarify a bit, "referral rules" are a set of procedures our union uses to refer workers to jobs. They are not standing rules, parliamentary rules, or anything like that. Think of them as operating procedures for a business entity.
Yes, we could certainly (and have in the past) update and amend those procedures without suspending them. However, not all in our organization like having these procedures and would prefer to return to the time before we had these in place. I am anticipating the possibility of one of our officers moving to suspend these procedures for an overhaul (possibly as a means to essentially do away with them entirely). Politics don't you know.
In any event, I am looking for the proper procedure to follow if someone moves to suspend these procedures (again, this is not a suspension of the standing rules or by-laws). My thoughts are either this must be (UN)done via a motion to rescind, or by the amendment procedure within the referral rules themselves (essentially amend the procedures to suspend them).
Thanks again for the help.
