The
Book of Order Online
"The
Constitution of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) designates Robert's
Rules of Order, Newly Revised, latest edition, as the parliamentary
authority to be used in governing body meetings."
-- From Marianne L. Wolfe's helpful booklet
for commissioners on Parliamentary Procedures in the Presbyterian
Church (USA), available on the PC(USA) website
The
Book of Order requires that "Meetings of governing bodies,
commissioners, and committees shall be conducted in accordance with
the most recent edition of Robert's Rules of Order, except
in those cases where this Constitution provides otherwise." A
handy resource for commissioners to General Assembly is called "Parliamentary
Procedures in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)." It is a quick
guide to the procedures used at General Assembly.
