Thanks, everyone, for sharing your thoughts on the matter. The information is most helpful.

Thanks very much for helping me clarify the matter. Yes, it is voluntary, in order to facilitate the chair being able to make a motion.

In a meeting following Robert’s Rules, does there need to be a motion made in order for the presiding officer to rescind the chair and then subsequently resume it? If not, what wording needs to be recorded in the minutes?
