Which motion would you use to send consideration to a committee for study?

• A. Postpone Definitely
• B. Amend
• C. Refer to a Committee
• D. Postpone Indefinitely

Answer: (C)

This is about giving a motion to a smaller group to study and report back. When you want more information, or the matter is complex and would benefit from expert review, you move to refer the matter to a committee. The committee can research, gather input, and work out details, then return with findings and a recommended course of action for the whole body to decide. This helps the assembly make a more informed decision without getting bogged down in the full discussion right away, and the committee’s report can shape the final action.

That’s why this option fits best: it preserves the main question, but places the evaluation in the hands of a designated group that can dig deeper and present a structured path forward. The other options don’t send the matter to a committee for study. Postponing definitely delays the decision, not the exploration itself; postponing indefinitely effectively ends consideration; amending changes the wording or scope of the motion but doesn’t delegate investigation to a committee.
