Guest paul Posted June 23, 2015 at 05:12 PM Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 at 05:12 PM Does Roberts advise that Motions passed in a Standing Committee, eg Finance, be repeated when the Committee reports to the Board? And what pages in RONR11? A more specific example: Our Finance committee passed a motion to increase funding on an item described in our Budget and passed it. This motion did not appear in the Report submitted to the Board but the Budget, as amended, did and was passed. Thanks in advance, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hieu H. Huynh Posted June 23, 2015 at 05:31 PM Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 at 05:31 PM Yes, see "Committee Reports" in RONR starting on page 511. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Posted June 23, 2015 at 05:55 PM Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 at 05:55 PM It isn't clear to me what you mean by that. If the Finance committee has the task of recommending a budget, it may well be that as they are developing that recommendation there will be a number of motions, none of which are repeated to the board, but the budget proposal that results from those motions would be. But if the budget has already been adopted and the Finance committee sees a need to change it, there would be a motion to recommend whatever change that is, and then the report would include that recommendation.

Huynh Posted June 24, 2015 at 04:29 PM Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 at 04:29 PM "If a standing committee wishes on its own initiative to recommend action by the assembly on a matter within the committee's concern, it is generally desirable, as stated above, for the report to consist of or conclude with one or more proposed resolutions embodying the committee's recommendations."

Josh Martin Posted June 24, 2015 at 06:14 PM Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 at 06:14 PM Yes it should repeat motions passed? What specific page and line numbers? I cannot findI don't think the answer is clear without additional facts. Did the committee propose the budget in its entirety, on its own initiative? Is the committee considering a budget which was referred to it? Is the committee proposing an amendment to a budget which had already been adopted?
