The Chair will call for any points or motions on the floor, to which a delegate can rise to a motion to set the agenda to a particular topic area. b. The chair shall call for those who are against the motion. If there is any opposition then there shall be 1 speech for and 1 against the topic area both to a maximum of one and a half minute each. c. This shall be followed by an informal vote by a show of placards, a 51% or more majorities is required for the motion to pass. If the motion fails then the second topic area automatically is set for discussion and if there is no second agenda, then the council moves into an Emergency Debate.
15.Speakers’ List: A speakers’ list is automatically opened and remains open throughout the discussion of the topic area unless committee chooses to move into a moderated caucus or unmoderated caucus. A speakers’ list is a place where a delegate expresses his/her country’s stand on the topic area. The time limit is pre-set to one and a half minute per delegate. At least 20 speakers or the committee size, whichever is low should be exhausted, alphabetically, to move on with the debate.
16.Yields: At the end of a speech in the speakers list (yields cannot be exercised during any other part of debate), a delegate has the following ways to yield which are compulsory: a. Yield to another delegate: This is only applicable if the delegate has more than 15 seconds of his/her time remaining. He/she can give his/her remaining time to another delegate. b. Yield to questions: The delegate can yield to questions, a maximum of two Questions can be asked and maximum two follow ups per question can be entertained with the permission of the chair. Executive Board Members have the option to ask questions to the delegates. c. Yield to comments: The chair recognizes two 30-second comments.
17.Moderated Caucus: A detailed discussion on a sub-topic of the main agenda is possible in a moderated caucus and the main reason on starting a moderated caucus is to know the committee’s opinion on such an issue. A delegate can motion for a moderated caucus in the following manner, example ‘Motion to open a moderated caucus to discuss ________ for the time duration _________ (max 15 minutes) and time per speaker ________ (maximum 1 minute)’ A motion for a moderated caucus requires a simple majority to pass and can be passed through an informal vote. In case of multiple motions, with 5 being maximum, the chair shall decide on which one to put to vote first. A moderated caucus can be started in the middle of the Speakers’ list i.e. it is not compulsory for the delegates to finish hearing all the speakers on the list. Speakers should be recognised in lots of two. 18.Points: During the course of debate, the following points are in order: a. Point of Personal Privilege: This is the only point that can interrupt a speaker and is used when a delegate cannot hear the speaker or is experiencing discomfort and wishes to be excused from committee b. Point of Parliamentary Inquiry: This cannot interrupt a speaker and is exercised when a delegate wants to know anything about the procedure from the Executive Board. c. Point of Order: This is to point out the procedural inconsistency or deviation from the existing rules of procedure. d. Point of Information: This is a point that helps to clarify any factual inaccuracy in a delegate’s speech. If one finds that another delegate has misstated a particular fact after the completion of the delegate’s speech, one may raise his/her placard and on being recognized may ask for valid documentation supporting the delegate’s facts. This point cannot however be used for questioning a change in the country’s policy. The accepted sources of documentation for all committees, organs and special simulations of the United Nations are: Reuters, Amnesty International and any other such credible source approved by the executive board. For Indian/ Regional Bodies the accepted source is dependent on the presiding officer/chair of the committee

A delegate can call for an unmoderated caucus in the following manner: Motion to open an unmoderated caucus for [Purpose] for the time duration _________ (max 15 minutes)’ A motion for an unmoderated caucus requires a simple majority to pass and can be passed through an informal vote. This motion can be extended by another 5 minutes for preparing Resolutions/ Declarations and a maximum of 15 minutes are allowed for a working paper. It can be raised for following two reasons: a. Lobbying; b. Preparing a Working Paper, Resolution or Declaration. Page 4 of 10
21.Working Papers: These are the committee’s views on a particular sub-topic of the main agenda at hand. They provide direction to the committee and indicate the way in which committee is flowing. A working paper has no prescribed format and needs no signatories. Before introduction to committee, a working paper needs to be approved of by the Chair. A working paper needs a simple majority to be introduced on the floor of the committee and voting can be carried out in an informal way. In case of multiple working papers, the Chair has the discretion to decide the order in which they are to be put to vote. If a working paper is passed it has to be incorporated in the resolution. The voting on a working paper can be done in an informal way by a show of placards.
22.Resolution: The solution to the entire agenda is called a resolution. A resolution requires a minimum of 1 author and 3 signatories to be introduced to council. This minimum requirement holds true for every council irrespective of the council size. An author is one who formulates the resolution and cannot vote against the resolution, whereas a signatory is a person who simply consents to having the resolution being discussed in council and can exercise his/her vote in the way he/she pleases. In case of multiple resolutions being brought to the Chair at the same time, the one with more number of signatories shall be put to the committee first for voting. A resolution before being introduced requires the prior approval and signature of the chair. The voting on introduction of the resolution for debate can be done in an informal manner however, the voting regarding the passing of the resolution must be done through Indian International Model United Nations formal voting procedure (Rule 33). The resolution also has to be according to the prescribed format mentioned in Annexure I. a. Authors is a person who writes the resolution and structures and ideates over it. He/She has to abide by the resolution. b. Signatories are those who give consent to discuss the resolution in the council. However, a signatory need not vote for a resolution.
23.Amendments:All amendments need to be written and submitted to the executive board. The format for this is authors, signatories and the clause with mentioning the add, delete and replace. There are two forms of amendment, which can be raised by raising a Motion for amendment and approval of the chair: a. Friendly Amendments: An amendment, which is agreed upon by all the author/’s does not require any kind of voting. b. Normal Amendments: Amendments that are introduced by any other need not be voted upon by the council and is directly incorporated in the resolution. You need a simple majority in order to introduce a normal amendment.
24.E-mendments: Any correction of grammatical error or deviation from the prescribed format for procedure writing is called an e-mendment and does not require any voting but a simple approval of the chair. B)EMERGENCY DEBATE: During the emergency debate at an IIMUN or an affiliated conference, the maximum time duration for an emergency should be 3 hours. No observers should be allowed in the committee.

29.Unmoderated Caucus: There shall only be one unmoderated caucus which should be utilized in formulating the Declaration.
30.Declaration: This is a combination of a working paper and a resolution but is easier and faster. A declaration is also in the same prescribed format as a resolution, as mentioned in Annexure I, and requires 1 author and 3 signatories apart from prior approval from the chair. An informal vote is enough for deciding which declaration to discuss but for passing a declaration a formal voting is required. C) RULES COMMON TO BOTH FORMs OF DEBATE

Round 2: All delegates that have opted for rights get to justify their positions. This round is entered only if there is yes with rights or a no with rights and a pass. c. Round 3: Delegates have to cast their final vote which cannot change between a yes, no and abstain. A resolution passes if it has a 2/3rd majority Clause-by-Clause Voting: This is applicable only to resolutions and not declarations. A delegate may motion for this and informal voting shall take place clause by clause. A simple majority is required for each clause to pass. However, the entire resolution shall be put to vote through formal voting procedure.
