The parliamentarian suggests I ought to amplify
my previous statement to make it abundantly clear that the
effect of the last action is to leave no committee recom-
mendation approved by the Committee of the Whole, and the
effect of no recommendation is to leave the matter open
for any pertinent amendments.
There is no positive recommendation, so the
matter is open for any pertinent recommendations. A posi-
tive recommendation one way or the other would, of course
be controlling to the extent the Chair indicated previously.
Delegate Case.
DELEGATE CASE: Mr. Chairman, another pos-
sibility occurred to me, and I wonder if we can have a
ruling on it. It is this:
Suppose the motion for reconsideration wins
and the matter is then open for reconsideration, and then
a tie vote is had --
THE CHAIRMAN: On which? On the amendment?
DELEGATE CASE: Yes.
Then do I take it that the amendment would fail
and the proponents of the Board of Public Works would then
be precluded from offering an amendment |
