Atul Kapur Posted January 10, 2023 at 03:33 AM Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 at 03:33 AM Going back to the original question, it sounds like these are a variety of motions to Amend Something Previously Adopted - that something being the existing platform. Therefore, I believe that 10:25, particularly the 2nd part of that paragraph, is relevant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The properly asserted demand of a single member that a question be divided unquestionably results in the division of the question. It is not, however, a motion for the Division of a Question, since it shares virtually none of the standard descriptive characteristics of the latter, except perhaps that it is not debatable, and cannot be reconsidered.

Caryn Ann Harlos Posted January 10, 2023 at 01:42 PM Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 at 01:42 PM I understand now... my confusion was the odd (to me) phrase "voted on separately." I think "debated and voted on separately" or "handled separately" would be more clear, but I have my question answered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Elsman Posted January 10, 2023 at 01:42 PM Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 at 01:42 PM The problem, Mr. Novosielski, is that it is absurd to divide the distinct elements of a series by themselves. You cannot divide the World Series into its distinct games, because it is already divided by its very nature as a series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Brown Posted January 10, 2023 at 02:05 PM Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 at 02:05 PM On 1/10/2023 at 7:42 AM, Rob Elsman said: it is absurd to divide the distinct elements of a series by themselves. I disagree. It is perfectly appropriate per RONR to divide the different parts (or elements) of a series of amendments in the circumstances described by Ms. Harlos and as addressed by RONR.

That is not analogous to the parliamentary issue we are discussing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
