I think there is a slight typo. "Rule 44-A. Motion to
take from the table. After one session day's notice
any matter laid on the table may be taken therefrom on
motion, provided, that business of the class of the
matter be taken from the table" -- the word "to" is
left out, appearing after matter, "to be taken from the
table would then be in order."
As you will recall, there have been at least
two motions to table in the Convention that carried.
I believe the present motion on the question of the
election of vice chairmen. Someone moved something on that
matter and the matter was tabled. The second matter that
was tabled was one of the reports of this committee dealing
with the resolution as to when minority reports had to
be filed. That matter was tabled.
Technically those matters could still be taken
from the table. Since the motion to take from the table
is undebatable, it seemed to your committee if such a
motion is to be made, that fair notice should be given
to the Convention so they would have some time to consider
the merits. That is the only purpose of suggested Rule |
