RULES OF PROCEDURE
Rules of Procedure are not only integral to a Model UN Conference, but are also
integral to your winning that Best Delegate Trophy! It is a means of conduct at a
global forum which ensures diplomatic courtesy to other delegates and also an
order such that things don't get chaotic.
In order to raise any motion listed below, just raise your placard once the
Executive Board asks for motions. For Example: "The Delegate of India would like
to raise a motion to set the agenda to XYZ".
Make sure you adhere to these simple Rules of Procedure at all times during
session and do not hesitate to ask your Executive Board members in case you have
any questions!

Motion to Set the Agenda: This is the first motion to be raised at an MUN
Conference. In case there are 2 agenda, a motion to set the agenda to one of
them will be raised. This will be put to a 2 on 2 debate and then voted on.
Example: “Motion to set the agenda to Agenda 1 that is „Human
Trafficking‟”.

Motion to Open the General Speaker's List: A Speaker's List indicates
stepping into formal, regulated debate. It is a list of delegates who will one
after the other, present their views on the agenda established, according to
the time set. The speakers are chosen at random by the Executive Board.
Example: “The delegate of Mali would like to raise a motion to open the
General Speaker‟s List with the default speaking time of 90 seconds.”
At the end of the Speaker's List, the speaker may be allowed to yield his/her time
to the following:
1. Yield to the Chair: You wish to take your seat.
2. Yield to Points of Information: You are open to answering questions that
delegates or Executive Board members may have.
3. Yield to another delegate: You wish to give your floor time to another
delegate.
Points: These can be raised in committee whenever allowed and required:
1. Point of Personal Privilege: This is raised in case of personal discomfort.
For example, you wish to be excused or delegates are not audible. In order to
raise a point, you simply raise your placard and say „Point of Personal
Privilege/Order/ Enquiry.
2. Point of Information: This is a question that you can ask a delegate once he
has yielded the time at the end of his Speaker's List speech for the same.
This cannot be raised at our free will, but only when the Chair asks for
Points of Information.
3. Point of Enquiry: This is raised to the Executive Board in case of procedural
enquires and is suspended during a moderated caucus.
4. Point of Order: This is raised to correct a factual or procedural inconsistency
on the part of the delegates or the Executive Board, however it cannot
interrupt a speaker and is suspended during a moderated caucus.

Motion to Suspend Debate and Raise a Moderated Caucus: Usually the next
motion to be raised, a moderated caucus is part of informal debate. The
speaker raises a moderated caucus to discuss a certain sub topic of the
agenda and clearly states the total time and individual speaker's time for the
caucus. If passed, speakers are chosen at random till the time elapses. For
Example, if the agenda is sea piracy then the motion raised can be, “The
Delegate of Peru would like to raise a motion to suspend debate and move
into a moderated caucus on the topic “Tracking financial flows of Pirates”
for a total time period of 20 minutes, with an individual speaker‟s time of 6o
seconds”.

Right to Reply: In case any delegate has made an offensive statements which
has caused your or your country's sentiments to be hurt, a Right to Reply can
be raised in written.

Motion to Suspend Debate and Raise an Unmoderated Caucus: As the name
suggests, this is an unmoderated session of debate where delegates are free
to move around from their seats and make allies, discuss solutions etc. This
caucus only requires a clearly specified total time period. Example : “The
Delegate of Peru would like to raise a motion to suspend debate and move
into a unmoderated caucus for a total time period of 20 minutes.”

Motion for Extension: If the time for a moderated or unmoderated caucus
has elapsed, delegates are free to raise another motion to extend the previous
caucus. However, this caucus can only be extended for half the time of the
original caucus. Example: “The delegate would like to raise a motion for the
extension of the previous unmoderated caucus for an extended period of 5
minutes”.

Motion to Table Debate: In case a crisis has come up and it is impossible to
discuss the set agenda anymore, a motion is used to table debate and discuss
the new topic which could be the crisis or a new agenda. This means the set
agenda is put aside and the committee will come back to it.

Appeal to the Chair's Decision: If at any point, the Chair has made the
wrong decision which you do not agree to and is not changing the decision
even after a Point of Order is raised, you may appeal to the decision. At this
point, the Chair steps back, the Vice Chair takes control of proceedings and
the Secretary General is asked to rule on the matter. However it is advisable
to appeal extremely cautiously, and only when you have absolutely no other
choice.

Working Papers: The committee is ultimately moving towards a documented
set of solutions known as a resolution. A Working Paper is a rough draft of
the same, with simple points and a list of signatories who support the paper.
Working papers are usually prepared in unmoderated caucuses.

Motion to Introduce Draft Resolution (1.0) : A draft resolution is the draft of
the final resolution in proper formatting and the compiled working paper as
approved by the Vice Chairperson. It has a set of sponsors who are the main
authors of the draft, and a list of signatories who wish to see it discussed.
This motion needs to be raised in order to introduce it to the floor for further
discussion.

Amendments: Amendments are changes made to your draft resolution while
it is on the floor for discussion. Amendments can be used to add, delete or
modify a certain clause. All amendments are voted on (unfriendly) unless all
sponsors agree to the amendment (friendly) and if passed, are incorporated
into the draft.

Motion to Suspend Meeting: A motion is raised to suspend meeting when the
committee has to move into a short break and reconvene soon after in the
same day. This can be used for breaking in times of tea, lunch etc.

Motion to Close Debate and Move into Voting: After all drafts have been
discussed and amended, they are voted upon. This motion is used to close
debate for the same. Voting varies from Executive Board to Executive Board
and also depending on the time constraints. Hence some might entertain
voting Draft Resolution after discussion of each Draft Resolution and some
might entertain them all together after having discussed them all together. It
is important to note that no new draft resolutions can be introduced after this
motion.

Motion to Adjourn Session: All UN or MUN sessions end with a motion to
adjourn the session. This means debate is suspended until the next meeting,
which can be overnight or even after a year.
