Shivani Posted April 22, 2021 at 02:18 AM Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 at 02:18 AM (edited) If there is a standing committee report, can the committee person who is reading the report include a motion in the report? Would it need a second? Would it come before or after the unfinished business/rest of the reports? I saw a presentation where the committee person suggested the motion and a member moved to accept the suggestion, but it didn't need a second. After being moved, how would the chair address it?

Atul Kapur Posted April 22, 2021 at 02:48 AM Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 at 02:48 AM Yes. In fact that is the procedure described in RONR (12th ed.) 51:11 Not if it were made by the committee person making the report. 51:11-12 Before (immediately when the motion is made after the report). 41:14 The events you described followed RONR, except that the committee person should have moved the motion (in which case would not require a second). After being moved, the chair should state the motion, similar to any other motion that is in order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
