Amendments to SO 10.1

Delete the whole of the first sentence and replace with:

“If, at the end of the Conference the business of conference has not been

concluded, all outstanding motions and amendments shall stand referred to the

National Retired Members’ Committee. The National Retired Members’ Committee in

turn shall report back to the appropriate Branch or submitting body its decisions on

these matters.”

Insert new SO 10.2 to read:

“10.2 In the event of conference being held virtually, or some delegates

participating virtually, should any motion or amendment fail to be moved by a

delegate participating virtually due to technical issues, such motion or amendment

shall not fall but stand to be referred to the National Retired Members’ Committee

under the provisions of Standing Order 10.1.”
