The constitution states "a motion may be received on the floor of the convention but to be received must receive ratification of a two-thirds majority vote of voting members at the meeting" Does this mean there needs to be a 2/3 majority vote to start debate (by being received) or just a 2/3 majority vote to pass the motion? Thanks in advance!

We are running an AGM for a Faculty Association. It has been stated that any motions from the floor under 'New Business' must be about governance and not operational issues. However, I do not see this in the Constitution. Does Robert's Rules of Order limit the kind of motions that can be introduced under New Business?

Thank you all!

Thank you!

We are having a contentious AGM. A member submitted a constitutional amendment well prior to the meeting but later withdrew their amendment before the meeting started. The Seconder was not notified. Is it required to notify the seconder?
