Proposed order of voting on Proposed Motions and Proposed Amendments
For the 39th World Conference we have so far received a total of 22 Proposed Motions and 5 Proposed Amendments.
The Proposed Motions will not necessarily be voted upon in the order set out in Document 6B. Recognising that some Proposed Motions are related and may influence how Member Organisations wish to vote on other motions, the Conference Chair, in consultation with the Procedural Team Coordinator, determines the order in which Proposed Motions and Proposed Amendments are considered and voted upon.
We are happy to share the planned voting order for the voting on Proposed Motions and Proposed Amendments at the World Conference.
Please note that this is still subject to change. The Procedural Team will confirm the final voting order, which is decided by the World Conference Chair, before any formal voting session begins during the Conference.
