3. Offering motions

 

Users are given permission by a teacher or manager to participate in the meeting by assigning them a role with the capability to make motions. Normal users are only able to make motions after the chair has opened the session.

In a parliamentary meeting, there are several different types of motions that can be made. Only one is considered at a time, and the types of motions that can be offered depend on the motion which is currently pending.

Traditionally it is up to the chair to determine which motions are appropriate, but the Plenary meeting activity assists by only allowing users to offer certain types of motions based upon what is currently pending.
