Section 336: The General Assembly Applying the New Rules
Chapter 336: A conference applying new rules
In order to prevent someone from using arbitrary methods to delay the voting on a certain motion, the rules stipulate that each person can speak no more than 2 times on a motion. For more intense and complex issues, the number of speeches can be temporarily adjusted. However, the maximum number is no more than 3 times. Once
The meeting made a resolution on the motion. No repeated proposals, including similar proposals of the same nature, are allowed at this meeting.
There are more than 500 people in the Cross Travel Group, and many people will definitely ask to speak on hot topics. Even if the time and number of speeches are limited, the entire meeting will be dragged out for a long time. In order to overcome this, Ma Jia decided to temporarily adopt the method of seconding the proposal.
The number of speakers is determined in proportion to the number of people. That is, the number of speakers is determined based on the number of people who second the motion when it is discussed. The more people who second the motion, the more people who can speak on the motion will increase accordingly, with half of them for the pros and cons.
.
When speaking, the speaker must first indicate whether his position is "for" or "against" and then explain the reasons. He must not use vague two-faced statements or words that imply his position. Such speeches will be deemed invalid and will be immediately discussed by the host of the meeting.
Suspension. People who intend to abstain from voting on the motion are not allowed to speak to avoid wasting time.
Spokespersons are only allowed to speak to the host of the meeting when explaining. People with different opinions should avoid direct face-to-face speeches to avoid verbal conflicts. Personal attacks are absolutely prohibited during speeches - personal attackers will be expelled from the venue and will also
It is not allowed to make targeted attacks on the logical loopholes and errors in other people's speeches during the speech. All speeches must focus on the motion itself. This is specifically stated in the meeting rules by Ma Jia. Make sure that you can only discuss the matter at any time to avoid being emotional.
.
When the speaker is speaking, people present are not allowed to interrupt in their seats, nor are they allowed to interrupt the speaker's speech at will - to prevent someone from using verbal violence to disrupt the venue. In this regard, Majia has formulated strict venue disciplines: speaking at will in the seat
Interrupting or making loud comments that affect the order of the meeting will result in a warning; second time expulsion from the venue for one day; three repeat offenders will be disqualified from the conference.
Since the host of the meeting has the power to lead the meeting process, the host in Robert's rules of procedure does not express personal opinions. If it does not affect the outcome, he does not even need to participate in the vote. Ma Jia also followed the same rule and clearly stipulated in the rules:
The host shall not express his own opinions during the presiding period, nor shall he summarize the speeches of others. Whenever possible, the host of the meeting will not participate in the motion voting. If he wants to participate, he must be the last to express his position.
As for not making a concluding speech, Majia is a correction to the Chinese people's meeting habits. When Chinese people hold meetings, it is customary for the leader to preside over the meeting and make a concluding speech at the end. This summary seems to summarize everyone's opinions, but in essence it is a
"Qualitative" conclusion. So there are many discussions in meetings, and the participants all say ambiguous things. This is the reason - no matter how much you say, you can't get the final qualitative conclusion.
Once the qualitative results are summarized, it is equivalent to specifying the voting of the participants in disguise. The participants will consciously or unconsciously vote according to the qualitative results. In the end, a one-sided "all-passed" situation will be formed. Therefore, the rules of procedure of the vest are specially stated
: The host of the meeting is not allowed to summarize, and the participants, no matter who they are, are not allowed to make so-called "summaries."
In order to fully reflect the neutrality of the meeting host, the speakers for both sides must be as balanced as possible. Therefore, the host should try his best to allow both parties with opposite opinions to take turns to speak to maintain balance. Of course, this must be implemented in detail.
Supported by certain details. The method Majia plans to adopt is to have the applicant speaker submit a note before starting the discussion. On the note, only the seat number and attitude towards the motion are written: for or against. Then based on the importance of the motion and the time of the meeting,
, arrange for both parties to speak alternately with equal numbers of people.
Only the moderator can propose a vote, and the vote must wait until the number of speeches has been exhausted or no one wants to speak again. If the moderator of the meeting has the right to vote, he must be the last to vote in the public vote to avoid his attitude.
Affect other participants. Secret voting is not subject to this restriction. In a public vote, the party in favor of the vote will raise its hands first, followed by those who oppose it. Those who abstain do not need to raise their hands.
Finally, in response to the chaotic and irregular situation of proposals during the entire meeting preparation period, Ma Jia formulated a standardized proposal model in accordance with Robert's Rules of Procedure.
There is the word "motion" in Robert's rules of procedure, which means that the proposed topic must include six elements: time, place, people, methods, effects and sources of funds, rather than an empty big topic.
First of all, the proposal must be targeted: for example, the women's issue that everyone is most concerned about. The proposal cannot simply say: "The masses lack sexual life, are very depressed, and have low morale. They hope to solve it." Such a motion is too vague and only asks questions without answering.
.The motion should clarify how to solve this problem. Ma Jia believes that people across time have not yet realized this. There are many people who put forward opinions, talk about opinions, say weird things, and complain, but few people actually think about how to solve the problem.
He hopes that this proposal model can change this situation.
The second is that proposals must be constructive to prevent similar proposals from recurring, wasting time and energy. After the vote on an issue is over, no new proposals are allowed for a period of time. For example, on the maid issue, once the solution proposed by the caretaker cabinet is passed,
No similar proposals will be accepted within one year.
This set of rules was reviewed internally by the Preparatory Committee and then sent to the caretaker cabinet for review. Cabinet members had no objections to it. Only interim Prime Minister Xiao Zishan raised questions about some parts of it:
"Will everyone abide by these mandatory rules of yours?" Xiao Zishan thought, how can this set of rules be enforced? When time-travelers arrive in a new time and space, they adhere to the concept that all time-travelers are equal. To enforce certain things, there must be
Sufficient reasons and means.
"Of course it depends on everyone's awareness of being the masters of their own affairs," Ma Jia said. "If the masses are willing to effectively safeguard their own interests, they will not fail to comply. Not only will they comply, but they will also force a few people who try not to comply to comply.
.If someone breaks the rules wantonly and everyone turns a blind eye out of fear of getting burned or because of their own dignity, then the group will soon be finished."
"Then a group of specialized personnel are needed to maintain the rules." Xiao Zishan wants to prevent the special reconnaissance team from enforcing it? Speaking of which, the special reconnaissance team has a bit of a "guards" flavor in the group's armed forces. Dugu proposes
Their performance during the incident also fully demonstrated that they are a reliable and disciplined force.
The members of the Special Reconnaissance Team are both reliable and intimidating, and their status is relatively aloof. The Special Reconnaissance Team is organized in the Army, but in fact it has always been under the vertical leadership of the Executive Committee. The Army has little influence on the Special Reconnaissance Team. Moreover, this team is a modern one.
The armed force with the highest proportion of stage traversals.
Ma Jia seemed to have guessed what he was thinking: "We must not allow violent organizations to interfere." Ma Jia warned, "Once this case is started, there will be endless troubles. Our Law Club will be responsible for this matter." Ma Jia took the initiative to ask for help.
"The law exists to maintain order. To this end, we can sacrifice our voting rights to fully demonstrate our neutrality."
"Isn't this appropriate?" Xiao Zishan knew that this was the most important political power among the people in the world.
"It doesn't matter. In order to establish a stable order system, this sacrifice is completely worth it." Ma Jia said very noblely, and the radiance on his face made Xiao Zishan stand in awe.
Ma Jia proposed that four people be selected from the members of the Law Club who participated in the work of the preparatory committee, and then four people were selected from the general public through voluntary registration in advance and public voting. Including him as the meeting host, a total of nine people served as supervisors of the meeting.
Committee. These nine people did not vote in the public vote except for the secret ballot.
The task of the Supervisory Committee is to supervise the order of the meeting at any time while the meeting is in progress and correct any violations of the meeting rules. The term of office shall be until the end of the meeting.
In order to allow everyone to fully understand the spirit of the Rules of Procedure, Xiao Zishan asked Zhou Dongtian to print 500 copies of the Rules of Procedure so that each person has one copy.
The "Rules of Procedure" have also been published in the "Lingao Times", posted on the internal bbs, and even posted in places where members often hang out, including dormitories and public recreation rooms. This allows everyone to have time to fully understand how this is done.
What happened. With the support of the caretaker cabinet, Majia also specially organized several people from the Law Club to give lectures and use simulated meetings to give intuitive explanations.
Most of the people who entered the venue at this time were holding the fresh "Rules of Procedure" in their hands, which caused a burst of discussion from time to time.
The members of the caretaker cabinet were all seated in the scattered seats inconspicuously, except for Xiao Zishan, who, as the prime minister of the caretaker cabinet, sat with the people of the preparatory committee. He was smiling, as if this was something exciting.
It was a pleasant event. As the director of the organizing committee, Ma Jia naturally became the host of the meeting. In order to prepare for this glorious and arduous task, An Xi personally went to the county town and dispensed several doses of special lung-clearing medicine at Runshitang.
I personally prepared the Chinese medicine for my throat and put it in a thermos pot and brought it to the venue, ready to be used to soothe the vest's throat.
The conference went smoothly. The first topic of the conference was the confirmation of the rules of procedure formulated by Ma Jia. The proposal was passed easily, except for a few detailed questions raised by Ma Jia. Ma Jia gave detailed answers one by one before voting.
Passed. As for the rules of procedure, Ma Jia’s seems reasonable and easy to understand. Besides, no one can come up with any better rules of procedure.
