Bruce Lages Posted July 29, 2019 at 03:05 PM Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 at 03:05 PM It seems to me that the easiest way to exit an executive session would be by unanimous consent ("If there is no objection, we will resume our regular session..."). If the business requiring executive session has been dealt with, there would be no reason to raise an objection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Elsman Posted July 29, 2019 at 03:47 PM Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 at 03:47 PM A motion to go into public session has the same characteristics as a motion to go into executive session. It is a main motion that can be raised as a Question of Privilege. It is debatable and requires a majority vote for adoption. As Mr. Lages opines, it may often be dealt with by unanimous consent, especially in smaller bodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
