Committee of the Whole: Specific question required or not?


Recommended Posts

Posted

This is a question in regard to "Committee of the Whole" proceedings.

I've just read pages 530-538 in the eleventh edition but am still not absolutely clear on this:

May a large assembly choose to move into the committee of the whole to have a discussion on a topic — a vexed one! — without there being a specific question that the committee will address?

I think the answer is yes, but want to be sure!

Thanks so much in advance for assistance with this issue.

You're right, the answer is yes.
