ANNEX “A”

Robert’s Rules of Procedure

Parliamentary Procedure

 It is a set of rules for conduct at meetings, that allows everyone to be heard

and to make decisions without confusion.

Importance of Parliamentary Procedure

 It’s a time tested method of conducting business at meetings and public

gatherings. It can be adapted to fit the needs of any organization. Today
Robert’s Rules of Order newly revised is the basic handbook of operations for
most clubs, organizations and other groups. So it’s important that everyone
know these basic rules.

4. Officers reports
5. Committee reports
6. Special Orders – Important business previously designated for consideration at
this meeting

7. Unfinished business
8. New business
9. Announcement
10. Adjournment

11
 The method used by members to express themselves is in the form of moving
motions. A motion is a proposal that the entire membership take action or a stand on an
issue. Individual members can:

1. Call to order
2. Second motions
3. Debate motions
4. Vote on motions

There are Four Basic Type of Motions:

1. Main Motion: The purpose of a main motion is to introduce items to the

membership for their consideration. They cannot be made when any other motion is
on the floor and yield to privileged, subsidiary and incident motions.

2. Subsidiary Motions: Their purpose is to enhance or effect how a main motion is

handled and is voted on before a main motion.

3. Priviledged Motion: Their purpose is to bring up items that are urgent about a
special or important matters unrelated to pending business.

4. Incidental Motions: Their purpose is to provide a means of questioning, procedure

concerning other motions and must be considered before other motion.

Presentation of Motions:

1. Obtaining the floor

a.) Wait until the last speaker has finished
b.) Rise and address the Chairman by saying: “Mr. Chairman, or Mr. President”
c.) Wait until the Chairman recognizes you.
2. Make your Motion
a.) Speak in a clear and concise manner
b.) Always state a motion affirmatively, Say, I move that we….”rather than, “I move
that we do not….”

c.) Avoid personalities and stay on your subject

3. Wait for someone to second your motion

4. Another member will second your motion or the Chairman will call for a second.
5. If there is no second to your motion it is lost.
6. The Chairman States Your Motion.
a.) The Chairman will say, “It has been moved and seconded that we…….” Thus
placing your motion before the membership for consideration and action.

b.) The membership then either debates your motion, or may move directly to a
vote.

12
 c.) Once your motion is presented to the membership by the chairman it becomes
“assembly property” and cannot be changed by you without the consent of the
members.

7. Expanding on Your Motion

a.) The time for you to speak in favor of your motion is at the point in time, rather
than at the time you present it.

b.) The mover is always allowed to speak first.

c.) All comment and debate must be directed to the chairman.

d.) Keep to the time limit for speaking that has been established.

e.) The mover may speak again only after other speakers are finished, unless called
upon by the Chairman.

8. Putting the Question to the Membership

a.) The Chairman asks, “Are you ready to vote on the question”
b.) If there is no more discussion, a vote is taken.
c.) On a motion to move the previous question may be adapted.

Voting on a Motion

The method of a vote on any motion depends on the situation and the by-laws of
policy of your organization. There are five (5) methods used to vote by most organizations,
they are:

1. By Voice – The Chairman asks those in favor to say, “yes”, those oppose to say “no”.
Any member may move for an exact count.

2. By Roll Call - Each member answer “yes” or “no” as his name is called. The method
is used when a record of each person’s vote is required.

3. By General Consent- When a motion is not likely to be opposed, the Chairman says,
“if there is no objection….” The membership shows agreement by their silence,
however if one member says, “I object,” the item must be put to a voice.

4. By Division- This is a slight verification of a voice vote. It does not require a count
unless the chairman so desires. Members raise their hands or stand.

5. By Ballot- Members write their vote on a slip of paper, this method is used when
secretary is desired.

There are two motions that are commonly used that relate to voting.

1. Motion to Table – This motion is often used in the attempt to “kill” a motion. The
option is always present, however, to “take from the table”, for reconsideration by
the membership.

13
 2. Motion to Postpone Indefinitely – This is often used as a means or parliamentary
strategy and allows opponents of motion to test their strength without an actual
vote being taken. Also, debate is once again open on the main motion.

Parliamentary Procedure is the best way to get things done at your meetings. But it will
only work if you use properly.

1. Allow motions that are in order.

2. Have members obtain the floor properly.
3. Speak clearly and concisely.
4. Obey the rules of debate.

Most Importantly, BE COURTEOUS.

REVISED, AMENDED, REWRITTEN THEN RATIFIED on January 27, 2023, at the

Provincial Farm School Agri-Tourism Center, Amulung, Cagayan during the Provincial RIC
Federation meeting.
