that before consideration of a motion to rise the entire
Committee of the Whole know what effect on the calendar
and agenda for ensuing days the adoption of such a motion
would cause. I therefore plan to follow the administrative
practice which I think is permitted under the rules
and in this the Parliamentarian concurs, that in the event
a motion to rise is made in the Committee of the Whole by
any Delegate, it will not be debatable. But before
the motion is put t0 a vote, if it is made by any Delegate
other than the Chairman of the Committee on Calendar
and Agenda, I will recognize the Chairman of the Committee
on Calendar and Agenda to advise the Committee of the Whole
what effect the adoption of the amendment will have on
the calendar for the ensuing days.
This will not be debate, but will be merely
a statement for the information of the Committee of the
Whole. I make the announcement now so that you all will
be informed as to the procedure to be followed, and
my reasons for it.
I discussed this with the Chairman of the
Committee on Rules, Credentials and Convention Budget. |
