While a motion is pending that has three separate recommendations

Member:

I move that the motion be divided and we consider each of the three recommendations separately.

Chair:

It is moved that we divide the question and consider each of the three recommendations separately. Is there any objection to dividing the question? [pause] Hearing no objection, we will divide the question. The motion before you at this time is Recommendation 1. Is there any discussion on Recommendation 1?

RULES FOR THE DIVISION OF THE QUESTION:

• If there is an objection, it must be processed as a motion
• Needs a second
• Is not debatable
• Only amendable as to how the motion is divided
• Needs a majority vote
• If the question is divided, each section is treated as a separate motion that has already been made. So you discuss one, vote on it, and then go to the next one.
