Synopsis

Excerpt from Principles of Procedure in Deliberative Bodies

This manual is not a collection Of arbitrary rules. It sets forth what is generally known as parliamentary procedure in a consistent system, every part of which is founded on good and sufficient reasons.

A person who has mastered the general principles Of procedure can readily learn and apply the special rules and methods governing the legislative or municipal body to which he may have been elected.

The questions Of procedure which may arise are innumerable, and they become peculiarly perplexing so soon as there is a departure from correct methods. It must not be expected that a direct answer to all such questions can be found in any book. In cases not directly covered, the best guides are common sense and fair dealing.

About this title

Product Description

Excerpt from Principles of Procedure in Deliberative Bodies The purpose of this manual is to furnish a concise and systematic statement of the principles of procedure applicable to deliberative bodies, and great care has been taken to keep the distinction clear between principles, which are of general application, and rules, which are adopted to meet requirements dependent on the size and purposes of special assemblies. To treat of all the complications of procedure, which may arise, would have necessitated a book much too large for ready reference or convenient carriage. Men and women alike need such knowledge of parliamentary law as will enable them to pursue the proper course under ordinary circumstances, and generally they need no more, nor have they the time to acquire more.
