Myth #10: The Chair Rules the Meeting

The chair is the servant of the assembly, not its master. Put another way, the chair can only get away with what the assembly allows. If the rules of the assembly are being violated, any member can raise a “Point of Order.” Once the chair rules on the Point of Order, a member can Appeal from the decision of the chair. If seconded, the Appeal takes the parliamentary question away from the chair and gives it to the assembly. The assembly is the ultimate decider of all procedural issues.

Based on Roberts rules of Order, the assembly is the master.

In the “P = C, the “P” could be Pelousey, the assembly chair/speaker.

In the larger view, the assembly is the servant of the people that elected them.
