I am ready to debate whether or not the motion is in order, whenever you would like. But an amendment in which the only word from the main motion that appears is « that »... Based on that rationale, anything can be amended. I could even throw in some fish, if you like.
To hold a debate at the steering committee on whether or not this motion is in order is inappropriate. I don't believe that it is the right place, because members who are not sitting on the steering committee will want to reopen the question again. Let's block off some time, perhaps in September, to discuss the issue, but until then, let us duly discuss this motion at the appropriate time, that is after 48 hours' notice.
