Guest Robert Sievert Posted July 29, 2014 at 03:37 PM Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 at 03:37 PM Does a motion have to be acted upon (defeated) before a motion "to refer back to committee" can be acted upon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgar Guest Posted July 29, 2014 at 03:48 PM Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 at 03:48 PM No. If a motion has been disposed of (either by adopting or defeating it), there's no longer a pending motion to refer to a committee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Ed Posted July 29, 2014 at 03:50 PM Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 at 03:50 PM No. Once a Committee has reported their recommendations with regards to the motion, the group (the Board?) is free to do whatever it wants with the motion. So, the group can merely pass a motion to send the original motion back to the Committee for re-consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Novosielski Posted July 29, 2014 at 03:50 PM Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 at 03:50 PM No. The proper time to "recommit" is while it is still under discussion. Once it's voted on, the decision is made and presumably no more committee input is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
