Plenary Meetings of the General Assembly

5.4. Committee Reports

The Bills and Overtures Committee will recommend docket order for the reports of assembly committees, which will be presented by the committee leadership. 

Within a committee report, the committee leadership will determine the order in which IOBs are considered, along with which resource persons (if any) will be called upon to give background to the Assembly.

When the assembly votes on an IOB, that action is taken on the committee’s recommendation. That means, for example, that if the committee is recommending an overture be disapproved, a “yes” vote indicates opposition to the overture.
