6. Integrating Video

Parliamentary procedure was developed for in person meetings, but is also applicable to meetings which take place electronically. However, most video conferencing software isn't really designed to use it. Conducting the parliamentary meeting is more complex because the chair needs to ensure that the speaker who has the floor is not interrupted. The plenary meeting plugin assists by clearly designating who has the floor. An integrated conferencing solution is available to automatically allow only the chair and the designated speaker to share heir cameras and microphone. Other conferencing systems can be used alongside it, but that requires someone to manually mute an unmute participants.
