There should be only one motion before the meeting at one
time, unless it is a motion to amend.
The chairperson of the meeting should not forget:
1. To see that every motion or amendment is properly
seconded.
2. To read the motion or amendment to the meeting before
discussion and again before voting.
3. To put the amendment before putting the main motion.
4. To call for the votes of both in favour and opposed.
5. To announce the result of the vote clearly.
6. To put the main motion to the meeting as amended
provided the amendment has already carried.
When a motion contains two or more propositions the chair may
require that it be divided in which case each proposition shall be
moved, seconded, discussed and voted upon separately.
MOTION WITHDRAWALS
Motions may be withdrawn by the mover before being
seconded.
Motions may be withdrawn after being seconded, with the
consent of the seconder.
When a member thinks it inadvisable to continue the
discussion on a motion, she may attempt to dispose of it by one of the
following motions:
( a) That the matter be referred to a committee.
( b) That the question be put, i. e. that the vote be taken
without further discussion.
( c) That the discussion be postponed or adjourned until
some definite date in the future.
( d) That the question be laid on the table, i. e. that it be
" shelved" for the present.
