jstackpo Posted March 12, 2012 at 10:07 PM Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 at 10:07 PM Yes - the reporting is the final act of an ad hoc (AKA "Special") committee. What happens next is the assembly's business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Ed Posted March 13, 2012 at 03:13 AM Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 at 03:13 AM If the superior group (the group it reports to) wants the Committee to reconsider its recommendation, the group would have to create a new Special Committee and appoint the members of the 'old' Committee to the new one (or have new members, or a combination of old and new members.) But the Special Committee that made the recommendation no longer exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Cisar Posted March 13, 2012 at 08:20 AM Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 at 08:20 AM Is an ad hoc committee automatically dismissed if it brings its recommendation to a body and that recommendation is defeated?It depends upon the wording of the motion that set up the committee. If it was just a simple statement to come back with a resolution on topic A, then it is finished. If the instructions were to keep coming back with suggestions until the main body is satisfied, then maybe no -- was the main body satisfied. Usually the reporting ends the life of the committee. But what was the actual wording? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
