Table all motions to next meeting


Guest Guest

Recommended Posts

Last Feb 2010, Vice Prez was absent at the mtg. He had all proposals with him. One of delegates decided to table all proposals to next meeting (June 2010). Last June 2010, we didn't meet quorum percentage. What do we do with proposals from last Feb? Are tabling proposals Feb 2010 still alive to next mtg after failing to meet quorum at that mtg last June?

Thank you!

Since no proposals were made, there was nothing to "table" (and tabling was not a proper action in any case). See FAQ #12.

You can act as if the proposals had never been made (or "tabled") and start from scratch.

Since your meetings are held less frequently than quarterly, any motion laid on the table at a meeting, dies at the end of that meeting (technically: session). [p206]

You can introduce the motions again at the next meeting s new motions.
